Dear Colleagues, 

As we look forward to June, I am honored to invite you to participate in two significant and meaningful events in our community: the Sonoma County Pride Parade and the SRJC Pride Flag Raising Ceremony. 

On Saturday, June 1, SRJC will proudly participate in the Sonoma County Pride Parade, and I would be honored to have you walk with us.  

This parade is more than a festive event; it is a celebration of love, respect, and the belonging we are creating as a community. It is an opportunity for us to visibly and joyfully express our solidarity with the LGBTQIA2S+ community and to affirm our dedication to fostering an environment where everyone feels valued and included. 

The Sonoma County Pride Parade is on June 1, 2024, at 11 am. Please complete this sign-up form https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0B49AAAA23A6F5C52-49808937-queeros by Thursday, May 23, so we can ensure everyone has a T-shirt and all necessary information for meeting times and location. 

On Monday, June 3, SRJC will raise the Pride Flag at the lawn flagpole near Analy Hall at 12 pm. Please join us for this activity as well. No registration is required.  

Whether you identify as a member of the LGBTQIQA2S+ community or as an ally, your participation celebrates the inclusive spirit that defines us.  

Thank you for being a part of these important community events.  

In community,

Dr. Garcia
