About this Event

Join us for a meaningful gathering at the National Day of Racial Healing Luncheon, presented by UVA Health Office of Diversity & Community Engagement.


The National Day of Racial Healing is a time to contemplate our shared values and create the blueprint together for #HowWeHeal from the effects of racism. Launched in 2017, it is an opportunity to bring ALL people together and inspire collective action to build common ground for a more just and equitable world.


This year's theme is "Racial Healing: The Heart of Racial Equity." This powerful event will take place on January 21st, as we come together to engage in thoughtful dialogue, share personal stories, and reflect on the importance of healing within our communities. We are honored to welcome our guest speaker, Rev. Dr. Michah McCreary, a renowned advocate for racial equity and social justice.


Rev. Dr. McCreary’s passion for fostering understanding and promoting healing has made a significant impact across the nation. His keynote address will inspire us to deepen our commitment to racial healing and explore actionable steps we can take to create a more equitable society.


The luncheon will feature opportunities for networking, interactive discussions, and a chance to connect with local organizations dedicated to promoting racial equity. Attendees will leave with insights and tools to continue the conversation and contribute to meaningful change in their own communities.


Price: FREE (Includes lunch)

Pre-registration is required. Please register online by January 10, 2025.

We look forward to seeing you there!
