Pride Beyond June: Sustaining LGBTQ+ Support Year-Round

Every June, rainbows flood our feeds. Logos shift to bright colors, and Pride events bring people together in celebration. It’s a heartwarming sight—but here’s the thing: support for the LGBTQ+ community can’t be just seasonal.

I remember chatting with a queer friend last year after Pride Month ended. She laughed and said, “It’s like everyone packed up the rainbows and forgot we still exist.” That stuck with me. Because while the parades are over, the lived experiences, challenges, and need for support continue.
