vacv JUSTICE STORies

On May 19, 2026, we launched our Juneteenth campaign with a goal of raising $19,000 by June 19th.

As part of this effort, staff will be sharing their justice stories—short personal narratives that reflect on the experiences that have shaped how we understand fairness, power, and injustice in the world. Each story also connects back to our values and the work we do every day at VACV.

We hope you take time to read these stories and feel a little more connected to the people behind VACV and the community we are building together.
