Family, fellowship, and fun at the annual Petersburg (VA) Chapter of The Links, Incorporated Family Cookout!
Great food, games, music, laughter, and friendly competition made for a wonderful afternoon of building bonds and making memories with our Link sisters and families.
We spend so much time serving families throughout the year, so it was nice to take time to enjoy one another and create special memories together.

Today, the Petersburg (VA) Chapter of The Links, Incorporated gathered for our annual retreat. While we spent time planning how we will serve our community in the year ahead, we also focused on something just as important, strengthening the bonds of sisterhood, friendship, support, and love within our chapter.

Through meaningful activities and intentional conversations, we were reminded that the work we do is strongest when we are connected to one another. Thank you to our chapter leaders and the hostesses for creating such a thoughtful and inspiring experience. 💚

Displayed on the corner of Norfolk Avenue and The Boulevard in Colonial Heights, Virginia, this banner honors the remarkable life and service of Colonel Porcher L. Taylor Jr., Ph.D.

Colonel Taylor was one of the few Americans to serve in World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. He was a member of the legendary Tuskegee Airmen, the nation’s first African American military aviators, and also served with the 555th “Triple Nickles” Paratrooper Battalion during World War II. In addition to his distinguished military career, he was one of the first two African Americans to earn a Ph.D. in Psychology from the University of South Carolina.

Although Colonel Taylor passed away in 2024, his legacy of service, leadership, and excellence continues to inspire generations.

Congratulations to our sister Ann Taylor, his devoted wife, and the entire Taylor family on this well-deserved recent recognition. We are grateful that Colonel Taylor’s extraordinary contributions to our nation and community will continue to be remembered and celebrated.

Thank you, Anita, for your years of service, leadership, and the difference you have made in the lives of so many. Your impact will not be forgotten.

Congratulations and best wishes.

A few highlights from the Emeralds of Elegance event hosted by the Petersburg, VA Chapter of The Links, Incorporated. We truly partied with a purpose as we awarded four scholarships to deserving high school recipients.

From the beautiful décor to the live band, the DJ, and the amazing fellowship, it was an evening to remember at Virginia State University.

Mental Health Awareness Month
05/26/2026

Mental Health Awareness Month

As we close out Mental Health Awareness Month, Week 4 reminds us that healing is not just personal, it is generational.

Access, advocacy, and emotional wellness are essential parts of building stronger families, stronger communities, and a stronger future. When we choose healing, seek support, share resources, and break unhealthy cycles, we create space for the next generation to thrive.

This week, challenge yourself to take one intentional step toward emotional wellness. Whether it is finding a therapist, attending a workshop, checking in with a loved one, or simply giving yourself permission to rest, every step matters.
Healing in our heritage means honoring those who came before us while protecting the well being of those who come after us.

You matter. Your mental health matters. Our community matters. 💚

On this Memorial Day, we honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
