Last month, two members of our team, Dr. April Clay and Mr. Tawon Green, took the mic to share public comments in support of the work of the Rethink Public Safety coalition at the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors meeting. We are pleased to report that on June 23rd, by unanimous vote, the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors accepted the request of Rethink Public Safety and became the first county to declare Racism a Public Health Crisis. We want to congratulate the Coalition and thank them for their leadership and advocacy for change in the county.
As an organization that aims to heal the wounds and touch the hearts of people from a culturally responsive approach, we absolutely stand in agreement and affirm that Black Lives Matter to Clay Counseling. Around the globe we have witnessed an outpouring of support for the African American community as they rallied and held signs expressing that "Black Lives Matter." If you held a sign, shared an encouraging word in person or on social media, if you wrote an affirming post to speak against racism, or even reevaluated your own views, we want to say thank you. Thank you for being a part of the change that needs to happen to uproot the legacy of racism and hate that ails our nation. #strongertogether
