The 4th Annual Black Brown and Indigenous Conference
April 21, 2026
Vicotry Outreach Church
The Black, Brown, and Indigenous Conference is a powerful collaboration between Juntos NW and the Fresh Out Community Reentry Program, two respected non-profits committed to social justice, healing, and community empowerment. Together, we are creating a transformative space that uplifts the voices of Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities through dialogue, connection, and collective action. Historically, our communities have endured systemic underrepresentation, limited access to resources, and a lack of culturally responsive and culturally specific services. These inequities have fueled social exclusion, deepened poverty, and reinforced cycles of injustice. Competition for limited funding and support has too often created division making it harder to build the solidarity we need to thrive.
This conference exists to break that cycle.
The Black, Brown, and Indigenous Conference is a safe, inclusive, and empowering space where we can celebrate our cultures, share resources, build relationships, and strengthen our collective power. It is a gathering rooted in healing, resilience, and community-led solutions
Through open dialogue and shared lived experience, we will challenge inequities, confront barriers, and move toward lasting systemic change. At the heart of this conference is a commitment to health equity ensuring that every person, regardless of race, culture, or background, has access to the resources, care, and opportunities they deserve.
This conference is more than an event; it is a movement, a powerful call to rise together and a beacon of hope for what’s possible when we unite.
The 4th Annual Juntos Podemos Conference “Juntos Sanamos”
June 30, 2026
Vicotry Outreach Church
Our Latino community is suffering, and now more than ever, we must come together to support one another. We are facing many challenges, compounded by long-standing barriers. Limited access to culturally and linguistically specific care continues to leave many without the support they need. As systems of care become increasingly strained, our community is experiencing growing mental health needs, heightened stress, and reduced access to safe, trusted resources. This moment calls for collective action. The 4th Annual Juntos Podemos Conference creates a space to come together, heal, and respond. It centers the voices and experiences of our community while strengthening the Latino and Spanish-speaking workforce that provides essential support on the front lines. The conference invites providers, leaders, and community members to come together to build solutions, share knowledge, and strengthen networks of care advancing healing and resilience across our community. Now is the time to stand together, support one another, take action, and move forward in healing as one community.
