🎉In 2024, we’re celebrating our 100th birthday; celebrating the many people who have helped us help kids since 1924! Let’s take a moment to recall our roots and look ahead to our next century of delivering world-class care. childrensmn.org/2024/01/16/100…

We don’t lump history and heritage months together into just one month. So why do we lump together people of different identities under just one term? Shorthand can shortchange. That’s why I avoid the term “BIPOC." childrensmn.org/2024/01/25/des…

On our 100th anniversary, we're taking this opportunity to: ➡️Celebrate our legacy. ➡️Express gratitude to all the people who’ve made our work helping kids possible. ➡️Take stock of where we are now and where we’re headed. ➡️Learn about — and learn from — our history.
