Pride in Practice: Acknowledging Struggle, Celebrating Strength
Join Mental Health America this June for an inspiring webinar in honor of Pride Month as we celebrate the resilience, joy, and strength of the LGBTQ+ community. In this session, we will hear from members of the LGBTQ+ community about how their identity has impacted their mental health, what pride means to them, and how they have found joy amid the stress and threats their communities continue to face.
Together, we will honor the vibrant spirit and fierce resilience of the LGBTQ+ community, creating space for community and celebration.
During this 60-minute session, you will:
- Hear the lived experience from individuals in the LGBTQ+ community
- Learn what impacts pride and celebration have on the mental health of LGBTQ+ folks
- Discuss the mental health impacts and stress LGBTQ+ folx endure in our current climate and how to cope
