Our hearts, thoughts, and prayers are with the families and communities impacted by violence and hatred

NCFL acknowledges the trauma that so many are grappling with in the wake of terrible acts of violence occurring over the last several days. Our hearts, thoughts, and prayers are with the families and communities in Buffalo (N.Y.), Milwaukee (Wis.), and Laguna Woods (Calif.).

The racial hatred that fueled the deadly attack in Buffalo, as well as attacks in many communities across the United States, is devastating. As an organization that works alongside communities on a daily basis nationwide, NCFL strongly denounces these events and reaffirms our commitment to advancing equity and justice through education.

We remain hopeful for a future where there’s greater acceptance and compassion so that families can live peacefully in thriving, equitable communities.
