2SLGBTQIA+ Pride Month
Happy 2SLGTBQIA+ pride month! Beginning in June until September, 2SLGBTQIA+ communities and allies will come together in many cities throughout the summer to highlight the resilience, talent, and contributions of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. With the help of our Community, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee, the Township of Russell continues to promote and foster a community where all residents and visitors feel welcome, comfortable, valued, and respected.
The acronym stands for two-spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual, and the + stands for other ways individual express themselves. This is to celebrate and recognize these folks in our community, and highlight the changes and challenges the community face.
