Black History Month 2025

In Canada, February is Black History Month, a time to honor, celebrate, and elevate the voices of Black Canadians. We are constantly reminded of the significant influence Black Canadians have had and still have on the country's political, social, and cultural spheres. Additionally, we aim to commemorate Black resistance to white supremacy throughout history and the ongoing transformational power of community organizations like Youth Now On Track Services (YNOT).
