NBCDW 2026 was made possible by a Village.

This week, parents, caregivers, educators, advocates, and community members showed up - sharing content, taking action, and centering what Black children deserve. From our Village Network to the Dream Forward • Act Now Digital Advocacy Hub, you were part of something real.

Dr. Leah Austin said it best - thank you. The work continues.
