The Parkway Senior Living Celebrates Juneteenth with Employees and Residents

Category: Senior Living

Author: Matt Bailey, Business Office Director

One of Arrow Senior Living’s Core Values is “I consistently and firmly advocate for fairness.”  This value was born of a belief in the power of a diverse community of people working together and a desire to celebrate our unique differences. Arrow prides itself in always striving for the common goal of diversity, equity, and inclusion.

At The Parkway Senior Living, we stand firmly in the belief that, regardless of individual differences, we all deserve to thrive in a space that values the work we do and the worth of everyone. Our goal is to create a culture that employees can rely on to be equitable and fair. So, to honor that goal, during the week leading up to June 19, 2022, we will be celebrating the Federal Holiday of Juneteenth with our employees and residents.

Juneteenth marks the day when federal troops arrive in Galveston, Texas, the last corner of the United States, to ensure all enslaved people are freed. Today, Juneteenth honors the end of slavery in the United States. We plan to celebrate throughout the week: on Wednesday, June 15th – we will be honoring black-owned businesses; Thursday, June 16th – learning history and education; Friday, June 17th – enjoying food and entertainment at Happy Hour; Saturday, June 18th – learning what Juneteenth looks like to you; and Sunday; June 19th – rounding out the week with a full celebration.
