The mission of the NAACP is to ensure the political, educational, social & economic equality of rights of all persons & to eliminate race-based discrimination.
It was a wonderful night celebrating the spirit of Christmas skating, laughing, & enjoying time w/ friends. The NAACP Youth Committee gathered to celebrate the season & host their annual membership event, which was a tremendous success. The energy, joy, & community made the evening truly special.
