A free virtual presentation on how to practice anti-racism

The Arc of Illinois and Going Home Coalition will present a plain language training on what is racism, how we can make sure we are doing our part to practice anti-racism and what it means to be an ally.

The training will take place at 1 p.m. on Feb. 24.
