With Pride celebrations taking place all summer, it’s a time for festivities, reflection and advocacy for the 2SLGBTQIA+ community.
Participating in Pride is one of the ways that the Nurses’ Union shows our ongoing support for the diversity of our membership. We celebrate our 2SLGBTQIA+ members and the valuable work they do for Nova Scotians each and every day. It is important that 2SLGBTQIA+ nurses are visible and that the profession is considered a safe place for all. It is equally as important that nurses know the Union supports them. The NSNU is a proud sponsor of Pride events taking place across the province.
Pride celebrations are a wonderful opportunity to show support for the 2SLGBTQIA+ community and celebrate diversity. We are fortunate to have several Pride events organized across the province.
If you’re looking for a way to get involved in your local Pride festivities, consider volunteering, attending events, or simply showing up to support the cause. By participating in Pride, you can help create a more inclusive and accepting world for all. Whether it’s wearing a rainbow pin or attending a local parade, every little bit helps to spread love and acceptance.
If you would like to sport an NSNU Pride t-shirt while at a Pride Event this summer, email us at communications [at] nsnu.ca (communications[at]nsnu[dot]ca) to inquire!
Join the celebrations, uphold the fight for equality and inclusivity, and let’s make this year’s Pride festivities truly memorable!
