You Celebrate Being You!

June is LGBTQ+ Pride Month! Celebrating Pride each year is important for the mental health of the LGBTQ+ community and is crucial for their well being.� Pride also helps people celebrate being LGBTQ+, including community, acceptance, belonging, and joy! Pride Month is a time for LGBTQ+ folks to gather and celebrate their freedom to live authentically. The LGBTQ+ community deserves affirmed, safe, supported, joyful, and mentally healthy lives (SafeZone Project, 2023) and (Mental Health America, 2023).

Supporting our LGBTQ+ is one of the many ways to help increase their mental health and to become an ally. Here at The Evolution Group we have a safe zone trained clinicians to help support clients that are part of this community.

Awareness events and celebrations will take place all over the United States and include Pride parades, picnics, parties, workshops, symposia and concerts throughout the month of June.

See the�QUICK GUIDE TO PRIDE AND ALLYSHIP�attached to find out more how you can support, learn, and become an ally of the LGBTQ= community!
