We Belong CMC also presented a "Vigil for Human Rights" on November 16 at 6pm at Veteran's Memorial Park in Ocean City followed by a walk of solidarity to the school board meeting. |
education Because education is the key to understanding and acceptance, We Belong CMC has made education a priority. We Belong CMC is lucky to have Karen L. Williams on its board. As an LGBTQIA+ Inclusivity Educator, Karen's research and expertise has brought thought provoking conversations to our local community. A three part series in LGBTQIA+ Basics, LGBTQIA+ History, and Religion and LGBTQIA+ Acceptance has provided a much needed dialogue. Stay tuned for more. |
visibilityWhen there is visibility and representation, LGBTQIA+ people know there is a safe space of acceptance. We Belong CMC is proud to have been part of the annual Halloween and Christmas parades in Ocean City as well as hosting its first ever OC Pride Fest on June 10, 2023. From rock painting nights to community service collections for the Covenant House, We Belong CMC is visible in our local community. |
