More than a dozen CHOP staff members volunteered at the Philadelphia Juneteenth Parade and Festival at Malcolm X Park, where CHOP’s Offices of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion and Community Impact sponsored the Festival’s Children’s Village. The activation featured a resource table, crafts, and games designed to engage families and strengthen community connections. Members of CHOP’s Multicultural Professionals Network ERG also attended the Juneteenth Kick-Off Honoring Our Ancestors Breakfast to commemorate the holiday and support local celebrations.
