Dear Colleagues,

We write to you today to acknowledge the existence of systemic racism and oppression that directly affects the Black community and to stand in solidarity with those who have taken action nationwide. We express sadness and anger towards the hate that has occurred and continues to take place.

Our Association is one that does not condone racism, hate, or discrimination in any form as we strive to cultivate mutual respect among our members. NEACAC’s mission remains clear, to lead, support, and advance the work of all our members. We implore our members to amplify and listen to the voices who understand and have lived this experience. Even though we are physically apart, we must support and care for one another now more than ever.  

For those members seeking support during this time, please reach out to us directly at [email protected].

Black Lives Matter. 

Sincerely, 

NEACAC Executive Board
