On today’s episode of Arrow Nicely News, we’re learning all about how communities are celebrating PRIDE Month!
Pride Month is a time to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community and to affirm their acceptance in our society. It commemorates the Stonewall riots, when the LGBTQ+ community stood up and said that they will be oppressed no longer! Now, it is a time to celebrate and reinforce the notion that love is love.
To learn more about how Arrow is celebrating PRIDE, Lenny sits down with two amazing team members, Austin Marsh, the lead Operations Coordinator at VITALIA – Montrose, and Taylor Thomas, the Resident Services Director of The KentRidge Senior Living!
