Celebrating the LGBTQIA+ Community

May 31, 2022

Chartiers Center is a proud ally of the LGBTQIA+ community. As we celebrate love in all forms during Pride Month, it’s also important to bring awareness to the unique challenges faced by those in the community. Many in the LGBTQIA+ community experience harassment, discrimination, denial of civil and human rights and rejection.
 These types of inappropriate experiences can contribute to serious mental health conditions among LGBTQIA+ people. Let the month of June be a reminder that individuals who identify as LGBTQIA+ are human, and they deserve to be supported and treated like humans, too. Learn about the risk factors of LGBTQIA+ mental health at https://www.nami.org/Your-Journey/Identity-and-Cultural-    Dimensions/LGBTQI.
