LGBTQ+ rights are human rights. We see you, we support you, and we are inspired by your courage to accept nothing less than full equality.
Pride Month takes place each June and is a recognition of the identity, dignity, equality, acceptance and visibility of the LGBTQ+ community.
The LGBTQ+ community, especially younger members, interpersonally and systemically, faces societal stigma, discrimination, harassment, family rejection, and denial of their civil and human rights. Inequity harms mental health and LGBTQ+ individuals experience mental health struggles at higher rates than others - especially depression and anxiety disorders.
Families, friends, and allies play a critical role and can take actions to be supportive:
- Respect Their Identity
- Listen and Be Compassionate
- Create and Teach Awareness
- Learn About the Early Signs of Mental Illness
- Support Them in Accessing Mental Health Resources
The Center's programs support clients irrespective of race, color, ethnicity, religion, gender identity or gender expression, and we are proud to be among those celebrating and furthering the conversation around equity, inclusion, and belonging for all.
