“It’s a moment to remember you’re not just surviving one of the hardest years in recent memory, but growing into your truth. Pride this year is a moment for you to stop and breathe,” said Sharon-Franklin Brown, CSW Board of Directors President. “To thrive means to flourish and progress despite the circumstances.
When we live with a sense of belonging, confidence, security, and self-worth, we’re not just surviving, we’re thriving! Thrive with Pride was chosen for this year’s theme, not just to highlight health and wellness as we slowly emerge from the pandemic, but more notably, to underscore the belief that thriving is an act of social justice within the LGBTQ+ community, especially for our underserved or overlooked members.
