From our partners at WV Black Voter Impact Initiative
Join the Black Voter Impact Initiative and friends for Black Policy Day at the State Capitol on February 7th, 2024!
Black Policy Day was established in 2022 by Crystal Good (Black By God), Katonya Hart (Call to Action for Racial Equality), and Dr. Shanequa Smith (WV Black Voter Impact Initiative), who shared a vision of creating space for historically oppressed and ignored groups to amplify their stories and participate in the policymaking process.
During Black Policy Day, they welcome all to the Capitol to engage with their state leaders and discuss the policies that most impact Black and minority communities.
Take advantage of this exciting opportunity to make a difference in your community! Learn more at bviiwv.com.
