The resolution recognizes The Links, Incorporated, an established nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting the culture and economic well-being of African Americans and people of African ancestry. It highlights the significance of the Southern Area Links Days at the Capitol, initiated by Margaret Thompson Johnson, which aims to mobilize members to advocate for legislation addressing health disparities in the Southern states and the Bahamas. The Alabama Chapters of The Links will commemorate 20 years of this initiative on April 22, 2025, under the theme of "Raising Our Collective Engagement: Advocacy ~ Education ~ Training."
Furthermore, the resolution emphasizes the organization's commitment to national priorities such as Civil Rights, Women's Health Equity, Education, and Environmental Justice, while also addressing the critical issue of food insecurity in Alabama. The members of the Alabama Chapters are eager to engage with state lawmakers to promote policies that positively impact their communities. Consequently, the resolution declares April 22, 2025, as Alabama Links Day at the Capitol, underscoring the importance of advocacy and collaboration in addressing these pressing issues.
