The Services to Youth Facet spent this year reorganizing. It did not put forth any programs but expects to resume next year.

The Links, Incorporated established the HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Facet in response to the chronic disparities that persist. This year, there was virtual participation in the DMV Links Red Dress event. This event takes place during the month of February and focuses on raising awareness for women's heart health. This event was in partnership with the American Heart Association. The HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Facet also participated in the Walk for Healthy Living, a national event, that promotes healthy habits and self care. The HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Facet participated in the Black Family Wellness Expo, a national event, which is designed to reduce health disparities for disadvantaged families of color. The expo offered CPR training, blood pressure checks, COVID test kits, live exercise demonstrations and more to the community.

The Links Incorporated established the INTERNATIONAL TRENDS AND SERVICES Facet with the foremost goal of providing opportunities for tangible service in other countries. This facet provides services and delivers transformational programs to people of African ancestry globally so that they may have a better quality of life. Programs are designed and developed to service educational, health and cultural needs and to help people emerge from poverty. A primary objective of our international work is to enrich the lives of women and their families. Our "boots on the ground" approach provides for more personalized methods for assisting and improving the lives of women, children and men worldwide through long-term programs committed to empowerment and public policy leadership in advocating for social justice. International Women's Day - The Links, Incorporated takes this opportunity to assess the progress of women worldwide in their struggle for equality, peace and development. In March 2025, we collaborated with the Prince George's Arts and Humanities and hosted an Embassy Hop which aligned with the March 25th International Day of Rememberance of The Victim of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade.
