  • Summary

  • Welcome to Balancing Life's Issues, the podcast and today, we're celebrating Pride Month and asking the essential question: why do we celebrate Pride Month?

    As we discuss this, it's crucial to acknowledge the challenges still faced by the LGBTQIA+ community. Currently, the ACLU is tracking 516 anti-LGBTQ bills in the U.S., encompassing curriculum censorship, healthcare restrictions, facility bans, sport bans, and even forced outing in schools.

    The journey for LGBTQIA+ rights has been filled with stark ups and down and to delve deeper into this discussion, we have BLI senior trainer Lori Jones joining us.

    Lori, a veteran with a 30-year career as an applied sociologist working in education and government, came out in 1981. She will share her insights on how far we've come and how much further we need to go in the fight for LGBTQIA+ rights.

    Tune in as we celebrate Pride Month and strive to understand the importance of creating inclusive and safe spaces for everyone.
