ACTIVITY DURING THE BLACK HISTORY MONTH
Every February, which is considered the Black History Month, SCICA organises awareness-raising sessions for children at Marie Curé Elementary School in Ottawa. Our activities depend on the theme proposed by the school Principal. Generally, we intervene to present the achievements of certain people within the Black community. The goal is to prepare immigrant youth and children for the challenges that many in the community face.
