Pride Month, celebrated annually in June, commemorates years of struggle for civil rights and the ongoing pursuit of equal justice under the law for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer community, and celebrates the accomplishments of LGBTQ+ individuals.
At Cooper, we recognize that members of the LGBTQ+ community have unique health care needs that deserve attention. Our Center for LGBTQ+ Health provides high quality care in a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment. You can learn more about the Center at the video here, or by clicking here.
Celebrate Pride Month with your fellow Cooper team members at a variety of local events throughout the month of June. Even our four-legged friends are joining the celebrations! See below or click here for a full calendar of events.
