Celebrating Differences
DBHIDS and HealthyMindsPhilly stand proudly with all Philadelphians and support their right to take pride in who they are! We also recognize that standing up and owning who you are can sometimes be a difficult or traumatic experience. If that was your experience, we want you to know: It’s OK to not be OK. You’re not alone. We are here to help.
DBHIDS is dedicated to educating, strengthening, and serving individuals and communities so that all Philadelphians can thrive.
Happy Pride, Indeed!
The simple gesture of respecting a person’s pronouns or asking how they identify can go a long way!
Why are Pronouns Important?
Making a mistake is normal, we all make mistakes. When you say the wrong pronouns to someone, apologize directly to the person and make it small and simple.
