What is Pride Month?

Pride Month, celebrated every June, is a time dedicated to uplifting and celebrating the lives, voices, and rights of LGBTQ+ people that’s individuals who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning, and others.

It marks the anniversary of the Stonewall Riots of 1969, which were a turning point in the fight for LGBTQ+ equality. Pride began as a protest and continues as both a celebration of identity and a reminder of ongoing struggles for acceptance, safety, and equity.

Pride and Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI)
