2SLGBTQI+
Durham Pride is Durham Wide!
Every June, we celebrate Pride to recognize the resilience, talent and contributions thatTwo-Spirit , lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer (or questioning) and intersex communities (2SLGBTQI+) bring to Durham Region.
Having a sense of belonging is critical to our personal and collective success. No matter what our gender identity, gender expression or sexual orientation is, we should feel supported and welcomed from one end of Durham to the other.
