| NIAAA is committed to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive work environment. Supporters of 8CRE (pronounced acre), a group composed of NIH staff, are hosting a Juneteenth Move for Equity Celebration on June 20, 2022. This commemorative Juneteenth event encourages reflection on a pivotal moment in American history when Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, Texas, to proclaim the end of slavery in the United States. You can join the virtual celebration by participating in a health and wellness activity in observance of Juneteenth, such as walking for a distance of 1.9k or by doing another wellness activity (running, stretching, dancing, breathing exercises, etc.) for a duration of 19 minutes. The NIH Fitness Center will also be leading a 19-minute fitness activity available for all to join virtually on June 20th at 10 a.m. ET. As appropriate, participants are encouraged to consult with their healthcare provider prior to engaging in vigorous exercise. We invite everyone to Move for Equity this Juneteenth and register for this free and virtual event. | | | |
