Community and Family Day Expo saw thousands flock to enjoy a wealth of resources which took place on the final day of the National Urban League Conference held in Houston, TX. The day kicked off with anticipation and promise of growth, empowerment, and unity as parents and kids hit up the ‘Back-to-School Zone’. This designated area was a standout feature of the event and became a haven for families looking to prepare their young scholars with tools and resources for successful academic development.
Children received free backpacks, school supplies and free health screenings, ensuring a jump-start to their academic year. The zone also offered attendees access to a free legal clinic, a beacon for those looking to clear records and seek legal counsel.
“Community day is a time where families from across the Houston area can come and enjoy a day where they can utilize a host of resources… and it’s all free.”
~ Marc H. Morial, President and CEO of the National Urban League, encapsulated the spirit of the day
