Happy Bisexual Visibility Day!
There is still a lot of misunderstanding when it comes to people who identify as Bisexual in our community (who make up at least 52%) so it is important to uplift each other and know the risks of invalidating or spreading stereotypes.
Spreading awareness of the facts is important!

The Equality Prom is a safe space for youth to be themselves and to enjoy a fun night of music, a taco bar and entertainment, and we’re proud to support it.
