NEW HAVEN, Conn. (WTNH) — Monday marks the start of Pride Month and a new beginning for the New Haven Pride Center.
The center officially re-opened on Monday after financial challenges forced it to close for several months. A $500,000 campaign was launched in March to restore it.
State and local leaders were on hand to help celebrate the new chapter.
“This is a phoenix that is rising and we are really proud,” ___________ said. “This is what resilience looks like. This is what love looks like. This is what community looks like.”

“This is what...”
This is what mental health challenges look like.,...
So proud name with held?🤔
Proud of being mentally ill?
Still waiting on straight White God fearing gun enthusiast male month.
Anybody know when that is?
I openly rebuke, and stand in opposition to:
pride month
....we observe Veterans DAY; we observe Memorial DAY: but
we have a Pride [sic] MONTH...??..how can these perverts
be proud of their sinful behavior....?? jus’ sayin’ ....
What do they do at the New Haven Pride Center. Hang out and give each other blow jobs? Serious question.
pride month should have been May to coincide with Mental health Awareness month.
A $500,000 campaign was launched in March to restore it. I wonder if the taxpayers of Connecticut paid for it??
It is really difficult to understand why they are “proud” of being seriously mentally ill.
I guess that is because they ARE seriously mentally ill.
What is the purpose of such a “center?” Who is allowed to avail themselves of it? Are breeders off limits?
So my bet is that the reason that the Pride Center had financial challenges is because US AID was shut down. And that the $500,000 campaign was funded by some state agency, not private donations. These Leftwing “centers” - whether they are for gay rights, black rights, transgender rights, women’s rights, whatever rights - are always funded by government money. No one gives a s___t about them. No one wants to go to them other than politicians looking for a photo op. If it wasn’t for government funding, they’d shut down.
Change it from Gay Pride to just Pride to attract children and the stupid
They have to shout their “pride” because they’re really ashamed of themselves.
The Pride Center should charge visitors admission when they go there to have pride with each other. Maybe get a liquor license and sell drinks. Allow smoking and vaping.
Sorry, this month has already been spoken for:
Ever notice that some “pride” events have to advertised as “family friendly” when kids are encouraged to attend? Wonder why that is?
