Pride Month 2022

Pride Month 2022 Calendar: June 1-30

Pride Month is celebrated every June as a tribute to those who were involved in the Stonewall Riots. The first Pride march in New York City was held on June 28, 1970, on the one-year anniversary of the Stonewall Riot. Commemorations and memorials are also held for members of the community who have lost their lives to hate crimes and HIV/AIDS.

Community and Support

Santa Fe College Counseling Center – The staff at the Counseling Center are here to support you. You can also talk to a licensed mental health professional in our office, by telephone, or through Zoom video sessions. To schedule an appointment, students can call 352-395-5508, or email counseling@sfcollege.edu. All Counseling Center services are located in Building R, Room 227 (above Financial Aid). We wish to stress that being LGBTQIA+ is NOT a mental health issue, but the familial, relational, and societal factors that they face can certainly be a stress that negatively impacts their mental health.
