Celebrate PRIDE

June is Pride Month, a time to celebrate diversity and inclusion in solidarity with LGBTQIA+ communities. Demonstrating support for others is good for everyone involved; and coming together with people from different places and backgrounds to stand for a common purpose is a great way to expand your horizons.

Think about ways you can volunteer, raise awareness, learn about being an ally, or support pride-focused businesses or non-profits. Here are some ideas:

Host or attend an event. Many cities around the world help celebrate this month with events, parades, or other celebrations. Check your local listings to see what’s being planned near you, and how you can get involved.

Learn more about the LGBTQ community. There are many great websites that can connect you to the LGBTQ community. Try the National LGTBQ Taskforce, GLAAD or the Global Alliance for LGBT Education (GALE). Or take a look at the history of the LGBTQ movement.
