Our Semi-Annual Networking Event is intentionally scheduled every year in alignment with Juneteenth, a time to reflect, connect, and celebrate.
- This year’s theme, “Black Resilience: And Still, We Rise,” honors the enduring strength of the Black community in the face of systemic injustice.
- Together, we’ll recognize the progress made, the challenges that remain, and the power of unity and perseverance.
Come kick off Juneteenth with the HRSF community! Enjoy an evening of meaningful connections, vibrant conversations, and delicious food and drinks from local Black-owned businesses.
