Happy Pride Month! 🌈

We celebrate Pride Month every June to honor the history, achievements, and ongoing struggles of the LGBTQ+ community. It commemorates the Stonewall Riots of 1969, a pivotal moment in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights. Pride Month promotes visibility, acceptance, and equal rights, fostering a sense of community and solidarity.

There are many ways to celebrate Pride, but perhaps one of the most important is creating a safe and loving space in your home and community. Swipe to learn more about how you can celebrate the LGBTQ+ community with your family!

Juneteenth is a day of celebration, commemoration, and reflection on freedom.

Contrary to what many of us were taught in mainstream history books, the Emancipation Proclamation didn’t instantly free all enslaved people. The proclamation only applied to states under Confederate control; not to slave-holding border states or rebel areas already under Union control. So, June 19th, marks the day in 1895 when enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, learned they were free—two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation. Juneteenth has since been celebrated every year, with Texas being the first state to declare it an official holiday in 1979 and President Biden signing it into law as a federal holiday in 2021.

How are you celebrating freedom this year?

Did you know that only about 30% American families regularly eat dinner together?

Work demands, unpredictable schedules, and lack of access to healthy food can make this more challenging to accomplish but the benefits are worth the extra effort! Over 20 years of research indicates that families who regularly eat dinner together experience:
-lower rates of depression, anxiety, and substance abuse
-healthier eating habits
-stronger communication skills
-greater emotional bonding
-improved conflict resolution abilities

The ritual of coming together for something as simple as a meal provides a valuable opportunity for family members to connect, communicate, and support each other.
When is your next family dinner?
