Martin Luther King Jr. Day (MLK Day) is January 16, 2023. MLK Day is the only federal holiday designated as a National Day of Service to encourage all Americans to volunteer to improve their communities. (“2023 Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service | Youth.gov”)
-
Engage with their community and create constructive action.
-
Act on Dr. King’s legacy of social justice and equity.
- Recommit by volunteering to serve others (e.g., clean up a public space, mentor a young person, or help those who are food insecure).
We remember Dr. King as a husband, father, friend, and fierce advocate for the betterment of all people. Honor his memory by organizing, volunteering, and spreading the word. Remember to MAKE IT A DAY ON, NOT A DAY OFF, for you and those around you. (“Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, January 16, 2023 | DoDEA”). https://www.dodea.edu/dodeacelebrates/mlk.cfm
