June is Pride Month. The month recognizes the sweeping impact that LGBTQIA+ individuals, advocates and their allies have had on history in the United States. Organizations across the country are reimagining leadership and programming to create more diverse and inclusive spaces. The New England PTTC supports health equality for all this month and beyond.
