The National Day of Racial Healing was founded in 2017 by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, with a goal of considering shared values and creating a blueprint for healing from racism. This year marks a full decade for holding the annual event, inspiring communities like State College, who started their own event three years ago.

AAUW State College is a co-planner and co-sponsor of this year’s National Day of Racial Healing in State College, along with the State College Borough and the Community Diversity Group. 

It will kick off with a keynote address by Dr. Leah Hollis from Penn State University's College of Education. Lunch will be provided, followed by an interactive session led by Dr. Wanda Knight of Penn State's College of Arts and Architecture.

There is no cost to attend, but reservations are required. (https://bit.ly/SCNDORH2026  )
