Welcome, Brokers!

February, recognized as Black History Month, serves as an opportunity for us to reflect and uplift one another. This month, we also recognize the strength, achievements, and contributions of individuals throughout history who paved the way for progress despite incredible adversity.

Black History Month is a time of both solemn reflection and joyful celebration. It’s an opportunity to share stories and inspire this and the next generation to continue creating and making history, continue unlocking doors, and continue stepping through them.

Black History Month is a time that I celebrate every day as an African American woman. I take pride in the legacy and heritage of my ancestors. My grandmother lived to be 96 years old and always shared stories about “the old days.” I appreciate the resilience, determination, and sacrifices that have created the opportunities I enjoy today, both personally and professionally. I am dedicated to honoring it not only in February but also throughout the entire year.

I am fortunate and appreciative for my position as a Fidelis Care people leader and having the opportunity to share messaging regarding African American culture. I see the efforts that Fidelis Care undertakes daily, partnering with various agencies and community initiatives, offering support services, and tackling health disparities. Collaboration helps enhance health outcomes for individuals of all ages and races.

While acknowledging the past and commemorating Black History Month, let's also make commitments to explore many of the amazing contributions and nuances of Black culture. Let’s continue to champion equity, diversity, and inclusion in all that we do while transforming the health of the communities we serve, one person at a time.
