“No pride for some of us without liberation for all of us.” - Marsha P. Johnson
First and foremost, Happy Pride Month! Each week, Urban Triage will recognize a pioneer from the LGBTQ+ community that has/is addressing the intersectionality's of being Black and Queer.

June has started off with nothing short of amazing support and fun fundraising opportunities for Urban Triage! Not only is it Juneteenth, companies like Delta Beer Lab, are coordinating with The Boneyard and The Biegarten at Olbrich Park, contributing a portion of their proceeds to Urban Triage this month! Bierock is also throwing a Juneteenth fundraiser with 18th Street Brewery, a Black owned brewery in Indiana the Juneteenth weekend. See the full list of June's fundraising dates below! We hope to see you there!

We are planning for the start of our Supporting Healthy Black Families Cohort 10, which begins June 21st. Let your friends and family know of this free and impactful workgroup.

During our first SHBA Workgroup, we started the day with a brief walk through the Natural Path Sanctuary.
