Happy Pride, Mercer County!
On June 29th, Ricardo Kairios and other Mercer County LGBTQIA+ Coalition Members will be hosting a Community Mixer and Networking Event. This event will aim to bring community members and stakeholders together to promote belonging and create a dialogue about current issues and needed resources in Mercer County to illicit positive social and health outcomes among LGBTQIA+ individuals.
The event is open to residents (18+), organizations, stakeholders, and allies who support the LGBTQIA+ community within Mercer County. In addition to enjoying refreshments and music while connecting with others, attendees will also be able to engage in a conversation with coalition members during a panel session to share lived experiences and strategies for future initiatives.
