Today we recognize Flag Day and honor the American flag as a symbol of unity, resilience, freedom, and hope.

Flag Day is an opportunity to reflect on the values of community, service, and support for one another. It is also a reminder of the importance of creating safe, inclusive, and compassionate spaces where all individuals are treated with dignity and respect.

As we celebrate today, we also recognize and appreciate the many individuals who work every day to strengthen and support our communities through acts of kindness, advocacy, and care.

Wishing everyone a meaningful and safe Flag Day!
