LGBTQ Pride events are held nationwide this month to mark Pride Month, held each June as a way to mark the anniversary of the Stonewall Rebellion in New York City. This year, it's also a chance for those in the LGBTQ+ community and their allies to show support to each other and organize against legislation aimed at the LGBTQ+ community, particularly transgender youth. June 1-30
At Macaroni KID Greater Port Jefferson, I am an ally to the LGBTQ+ not just in June, but also July through May. Love is love and we all need to treat each other with respect. If there are any family friendly events I may have missed, please email me at helenp@macaronikid.com - Thank you!
