Pride isn’t something that ends on June 30. While June is filled with parades, rainbows, and support, the LGBTQIA+ community deserves support throughout the year. The calendar is filled with powerful moments that deserve attention and respect. Let’s keep the spirit of Pride alive all year long, because being seen, heard, and loved doesn’t stop when the month ends.
