Before the puck drops, join us for an exclusive pre-game program with Melissa Parnagian, who leads league-wide efforts to elevate players’ community impact and manages initiatives like the King Clancy Memorial Trophy and the NHL Player Inclusion Coalition. 🙌

🚨 Reminder: Minneapolis Residents...Your Voice Is Needed! 🚨

Tomorrow, 11/19, the Minneapolis City Council will hear from community members about priorities for the 2026 City Budget — and this is a key moment to advocate for more public restrooms in Minneapolis. 🚻✨

If you’ve ever been impacted by the lack of restroom access (specifically in downtown Mpls), your story matters. Sharing your experience can help shape meaningful change. Comments should be about 2 minutes and can include data and personal stories — like:

🗣️ “I live with colitis and need easy access to restrooms. Because of limited public restrooms downtown, I avoid spending time in that part of the city.”
🗣️ “I’m transit-dependent and my two-hour commute has no restrooms along the route. Detours to find one have made me late to work.”

There are 3 ways to share your comment:

1️⃣ Attend the Public Hearing
📅 Wednesday, November 19
📍 Room 350, Public Service Center
250 S. 4th St., Minneapolis, MN 55415
🕑 Sign up to speak for 2 minutes

2️⃣ Submit a comment online (https://www.minneapolismn.gov/government/city-council/meetings/public-comment/)
Select “Budget Committee” under “Where is the issue being considered?”
For “Subject or File Number,” enter:
➡️ 2026 City Budget: Public hearings (2025-01017) – Public Restrooms

3️⃣ Leave a voicemail for your Council Members
Find your representative and their office number on the City website. https://www.minneapolismn.gov/government/city-council/members/

What does IBD really look like? Let’s Go There. 💜

Crohn’s & Colitis Awareness Week is just around the corner— a time to shine a light on the real experiences behind Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. IBD doesn’t look like one thing — it shows up in millions of moments, messy, meaningful, and often invisible. It’s managing symptoms with quiet strength, Googling late-night questions you don’t ask out loud, mapping every bathroom on your route, canceling plans when you need rest, and celebrating the days you can show up.
