September’s Highlights
-
Hispanic Heritage Month
Hispanic Heritage Month, observed September 15 to October 15, honors the rich histories, cultural traditions, and lasting contributions of Hispanic and Latino communities in the United States. In today’s climate, this observance underscores the importance of inclusion, equity, and celebrating diversity as essential strengths that shape our shared future.
-
National Suicide Prevention Month
National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, observed each September, raises awareness about suicide, reduces stigma, and emphasizes that connection and support can save lives. With LGBTQ+ youth facing disproportionately high suicide risk—45% having seriously considered attempting in the past year—creating affirming, inclusive spaces is critical to fostering hope and resilience.
-
National Preparedness Month
September is National Preparedness Month, a reminder that emergencies like hurricanes, floods, heat waves, and winter storms can impact Texans at any time, making readiness essential. By building emergency kits, creating communication plans, checking in on vulnerable neighbors—including LGBTQ+ families—and using trusted resources, we can strengthen resilience and protect our communities.
Upcoming Events
“Equality means more than passing laws. The struggle is really won in the hearts and minds of the community, where it really counts.”
— Barbara Gittings.
