Type "pride month" into Google and watch what happens. Last time we did it, there was confetti and flags and celebration: June is Pride Month around the country, a chance for LGBTQ+ people to celebrate who they are and who they love. It wasn't always possible, especially when homosexuality could get a person arrested.
Medford celebrates on Saturday, June 22nd, at Pear Blossom Park downtown. SO Health-E is the main organization behind Medford Pride 2024. We get details of the event and its links to health in a chat with Payton Henderson from SO Health-E and Savannah Randall from the Pride Planning Committee.
