The 17th annual Embracing the Legacy celebration, at 5:30PM on Thursday, November 9, 2023, will showcase the work of RFK Community Alliance and honor people whose extraordinary actions reflect the social values and hopes of the late Senator Robert F. Kennedy.

Each honoree is dedicated to making positive impacts on the lives of people whose challenges and needs often go unseen, by raising awareness, fighting against social injustices, and advocating for those who don’t have a voice. We honor this work because every person has value and deserves dignity.

This year’s event will feature MC, Janet Wu, America’s Got Talent Finalist, Lavender Darcangelo, and a special look at some of our programs for children. We will even hear from one of our Legacy Mentoring program alumna and her mentor. We expect the night to be a beautiful harmony of voices from our community, our honorees, our staff, and our program participants. And we hope that as many people as possible will join us to take part.
