Everyone deserves to feel seen, celebrated, and supported, not just during Pride Month but all year long.
Pride can mean so many different things, and every person’s story is unique. There’s no single way to experience it, and that’s what makes our community so special.
So tell me, what does Pride mean to YOU?
Whether you’re part of the LGBTQ+ community or an ally, I’d love to hear your thoughts, experiences, or even a small message you’d like to share.

When I hear pride, I hear many things.
One of the things that it means to me is feeling prideful to yourself’s accomplishments(not braggingly) being actually proud at the things you have accomplished. Not boastfully, confidently. Welcome the joy you feel when you do something great.
to me, pride means community. it means being able to be yourself without fear of judgement, and being able to rely on others to lift you up when you’re feeling down. to everyone out there, whether you are a part of the lgbtqia+ community, support it, or even if you don’t support it, just know that there are people who love you <3
i’m an ally, and i support everyone who is part of the community!
pride to me means being proud of who you are, whether your sexuality or identity is different from those around you. pride month is a way for those part of the LGBTQ+ community to be proud of who they are and celebrate this, when in the past people part of the community have been oppressed.
As part of the LGBTQA+ community, pride to me means being proud of who you are and what you have accomplished, despite the setbacks you might have faced (whether through discrimination or other things). To me, it means recognizing your own self-worth for who you are as a person, and being able to express your true self and be comfortable with who you are, even when times get hard.
To me, PRIDE means courage. To be able to express yourself unapologetically in a society full of discrimination and hatred, and to set an example for those who may not be ready to express themselves.

To me, pride means a month where everyone can be themselves and celebrate their identity. It lets you feel accepted for who you are, not who others want you to be.
fist thing I think when I hear pride is usually a friend, family, or loved one sharing something they are so proud of that another friend, family, or loved one accomplished
To me Pride means knowing you can achieve it and helping others to know their dreams and goals, and to spread your achievements and support one another’s.
Hi! I think that pride is being proud of who you are, what you do, and everything in between. I think that pride is something everyone has, and everyone should be proud of who they are.
