June is Pride Month

“June is Pride Month, and North Carolina Families United is encouraging all of our partners across the state to celebrate by continuing to fight for Equality and Justice for the LGBTQ+ family members, youth, and children we serve. We believe that all people deserve fair and equal treatment, and that no matter a person’s identity, we must advocate for their rights and strive to be inclusive in everything we do. We must respect all people, and continually respect and observe self-identities, including pronouns and genders. By ensuring that all people are given the same respect, love, and care, we as an organization, as well as a community, will be infinitely better for it. Please continue to respect and advocate for the LGBTQ+ members we serve and join us as we strive to be a more inclusive and compassionate organization."

Statement on Naomi Osaka

"On Sunday, May 31^st, Japanese Tennis pro Naomi Osaka left the French Open, citing Mental Health reasons. We would like to take the time to applaud Ms. Osaka for her bravery and her self-awareness in this decision. Ms. Osaka is a 23-year-old superstar who has won countless Tennis Titles, including the U.S. Open twice in the past 4 years. Despite her immensely impressive resume, as well as her incredible talent, it is her bravery and self-awareness that we are admired by. It is important that all people, both young and old, in any profession or work environment, remember to put mental health before anything else. No matter the circumstances, and despite any amount of pressure, by recognizing her own limits and her state of mental wellbeing, Ms. Osaka did the most important, and incredible thing she could. In a time where professional athletes are heavily scrutinized for their advocacy and for voicing their opinions, we believe that Ms. Osaka spoke louder than words with her decision and can be a role model for us all. If you or someone you know ever feels that their state of mental health is being affected by work or personal life, we encourage you to take time for yourself, and focus on your mental health care. Please feel free to reach out to us for advice or help seeking mental health care, or follow our Facebook page to learn helpful coping strategies and resources. Thank you, Ms. Osaka, for being brave and focusing on your mental health!"

This month marks 100 Years since the Tulsa Race Massacre. We at North Carolina Families United strive to continue to fight for Racial Equity and Social Justice. As an organization that has Black leadership, we recognize the importance of diversity and we strive to continue to rebuild what Black Wall Street once was. It is our goal to be a more diverse organization and to include people of color at all levels of leadership.
