Pride Month

Pride Month is celebrated every June to honor the LGBTQ+ community and commemorate the Stonewall Riots of 1969, which were pivotal in the fight for gay rights. This month recognizes the struggles against discrimination and celebrates the diversity of sexual orientations and gender identities. Events such as parades, workshops, and educational programs promote awareness, acceptance, and equality. Pride Month serves as a reminder of progress made and the ongoing challenges faced by LGBTQ+ individuals, fostering a sense of community and solidarity while advocating for civil rights and social justice.
