Pride Month, celebrated every June, honors the legacy of the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in Manhattan — a pivotal moment in LGBTQ+ activism and the movement for equal rights in the United States. This month is dedicated to recognizing the resilience, progress, and achievements of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning community in the ongoing pursuit of equality, inclusion, and justice.

51ºÚÁÏ, the first Jesuit higher education institution to establish a dedicated resource center for LGBTQ+ and ally students, remains committed to fostering a safe and welcoming environment for all sexual orientations, gender identities, and expressions. Through education, advocacy, outreach, and programming, we continue to support and uplift our LGBTQ+ community. Join us as we celebrate Pride Month!

JESUITS AND THE LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY

a website created by Fr. James Martin, S.J., highlights Catholic organizations, communities and people doing the work of connecting Catholic social teaching and LGBTQ+ equity and affirmation. Martin is the author of “Jesuit Guide to Everything” and “Building a Bridge,” editor of "America" magazine, has presided at Lavender Mass virtually for 51ºÚÁÏ and been a Commencement speaker here.

The Tyler Clementi Foundation has an that bishops, Catholic religious orders, schools and organizations have signed, including the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities. It speaks to the dignity of LGBTQ+ people and their right to be free from bullying. Tyler Clementi’s mother has spoken at 51ºÚÁÏ at a collaborative event between the Office of Health Promotion and Lincoln LGBTQ+ Resource Center.
