"October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and we would like to bring attention to this very important issue because of it's impact on the black communities particularly black women. Studies have shown over and over the health disparities that exist in communities of color and the challenges these communities have when trying to access affordable healthcare to address their many health concerns. When it comes to breast cancer, black women are facing later diagnosis, higher medical bills, and lower survival rates to their white counterparts. A part of racial justice is the elimination of racial disparities in all policies leading to the oppression of communities of color. Please continue to advocate for fairness and justice in all systems, including the healthcare system, our communities depend on it. " - Pure Justice

CEER’s Regional Resilience Campaign
is launching a series of
Community Listening Tours within our service counties:
Jefferson, Galveston, and Liberty!
These tours are led by community members to showcase areas in these counties that are neglected, under resourced, and have unmet needs. CEER bus riders are by invite only (due to seating capacity), and will be decision makers like elected officials, funders, service-provider organizations, and healthcare organizations who will hear directly from these impacted communities.
CEER is excited to listen, observe, and learn! And they also look forward to sharing our findings in 2023.
Liberty County Listening Tour: Thursday, October 27, 2022 10 am - 3 pm.
