Please join ECCSS in commemorating Juneteenth! On June 19, 1865, Union troops arrived in Galveston, Texas with the news that the more than 250,000 enslaved Black people in the state were free.

Take a trip online to the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History & Culture! https://nmaahc.si.edu/explore/stories/historical-legacy-juneteenth #JuneteenthCelebration #EmancipationDay

ECCSS will be closed tomorrow, June 19th, in observance of Juneteenth, a federal holiday. Please note that the Summer Feeding Program will be closed tomorrow and will be back in action on June 20th!
