When I learned about @BeyondDiff Know Your Classmates Day & the message behind it, I was hooked… when I found out it fell on my birthday, I knew there was no better way to celebrate than to unite against bullying as a @PS58RSSColumbia & P373 community 🩵💙 #WeCanRKR58 @CSD31SI

Pride is a month of celebration, love, authenticity, and joy, but it can also be challenging for LGBTQI+ youth. This month and every month, I hope you know it’s OK to take a moment for yourself and to check in on your loved ones. Happy #PrideMonth!

Loneliness and isolation contribute to many public health issues and have comparable impacts to those of obesity and smoking. It’s time we come together to address one of our greatest challenges. If we do, we can build a healthier, stronger nation. Surgeongeneral.gov/lonelines…
