Middletown Township declares June Bridal Month to support LGBTQ2S community

Middletown Township has officially designated June as Bridal Month, a proclamation aimed at promoting diversity, inclusion, and acceptance within the community. During the Board of Supervisors meeting on June 13, 2022, the board emphasized the importance of recognizing June not only as a time for celebrating weddings but also as a period to honor LGBTQ2S+ Pride Month.

The proclamation highlights the ongoing challenges faced by the LGBTQ2S+ community and reaffirms the township's commitment to fostering harmonious relationships among all residents. As part of this initiative, the pride flag will be displayed in front of the Middletown Township Municipal Center throughout June, symbolizing support for inclusion and safety for all community members.

In addition to the Bridal Month proclamation, the board also discussed designating June as Gun Violence Awareness Month, reflecting a broader commitment to addressing critical social issues. These proclamations signal the township's dedication to promoting equity and awareness, reinforcing the importance of community solidarity in the face of ongoing challenges.

As Middletown Township moves forward, these initiatives are expected to encourage dialogue and foster a more inclusive environment for all residents.
