THE WORK OF THE CHURCH
The Center for Racial Healing exists to be a resource throughout the Episcopal Church, and beyond, in our work to heal from racism. The work, by its very nature, must be collaborative. Tell us what your parish or diocese is doing. We want to serve as a clearinghouse for ideas and suggestions for healing racism.

Chattahoochee Valley Episcopal Ministry (CVEM) piloted the diocesan youth curriculum for Dismantling Racism with seven area youth on retreat at Koinonia Farm the first weekend of May 2018. The participants were so energized by the experience they want to keep going! They want to be leaders in their schools, churches, and communities in building awareness and education around systemic racism, white privilege, and racial trust-building.
CVEM is committed to supporting the teens' efforts and is adapting its teen servant leadership program Infusion to facilitate the on-going education and engagement of our youth.

Our participation in a Dismantling Racism workshop in the fall of 2016 started us on the journey that became ONE Harris County, a service organization geared toward acknowledging historic, racially based wrongs and facilitating people listening to and learning from one another.. Our goal is relationship building leading to opening up more opportunities for all citizens in our county. The 4 links below are to a memorial we held last weekend for 1947 lynching victim, Henry "Peg" Gilbert.
We are following up with our second Racial Trust Building Training this summer.
