Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate Love Day 2026! Special shout out to our sponsors, Board members, staff and volunteers!

We debuted an incredible interview with Philip Hirschkop, the lead attorney on the Loving v. Virginia case that legalized in*******al marriage and celebrated Pride Month and the LGBTQAI+ community.

Between the crafts, connections, community and food, we know a good time was had by all!

Grounding ourselves in these trying times has never been more important.

Join us online to discuss how our nervous systems get activated by stressful situations, challenging emotions, and activation of our traumas.

We will then explore a variety of grounding strategies to soothe ourselves and help us view powerful emotions as a source of generative growth, both for us and our teams.

It seems amazing to us today, but in*******al marriage wasn't legal in all 50 states until 1967, when the Supreme Court issued a decision in the case of Loving v. Virginia, ending all race-based legal restrictions on marriage in the USA.

Our Executive Director Reena had the amazing opportunity to speak with Philip Hirschkop, the lead attorney on the case, to learn more about this important piece of our country's history. Join us at Love Day on June 6 for a community viewing!
