Community Legal Aid is shining a spotlight on Black History Month by allowing their staff members to share their own stories with their Amplifying Black Voices initiative.

AKRON, Ohio — Black History Month is a time to reflect on the contributions Black people have made to society. But it's also a time to talk about the challenges and disparities they still face and are working to overcome.

This year, CLA is having its Black staff, board members and volunteers tell their stories as part of the initiative. Over the last few weeks, videos have been posted to the CLA YouTube page. Each person’s perspective is different from the next. The organization is also shedding light on issues that plague Black communities like generational poverty, health disparities and racism with its weekly blog series, Big Ideas.
