What a day to remember! Last Month, Good Shepherd was honored to march in the 2025 Boston Pride For The People Parade — standing proudly for love, inclusion, and community. 🌈

Our participation in Pride reflects the very heart of our mission: delivering compassionate, person-centered care to all, regardless of identity. We believe everyone deserves to be seen, supported, and celebrated — in life, in care, and in community.

Thank you to Boston Pride for the People for organizing such a meaningful celebration, and to all of our staff, volunteers, and supporters who embodied our values every step of the way.
