June and July belong together.

Pride Month and Disability Pride Month are often treated as separate celebrations. But for a significant part of our community, they are one story told in two chapters.
The overlap between LGBTQ+ and disability identities is not a footnote. 36% of LGBTQ+ adults report having a disability. And both movements share the same demand: that every body, every life, belongs fully in public life.

This summer, we are celebrating what happens when both movements build together.
