October 11 is International Coming Out Day, established on October 11, 1988, commemorating the first anniversary of the national march on Washington for lesbian and gay rights. This day honors the courage and resilience of our community who stood up for justice, equality and the freedom to live their authentic lives.
It encourages people to accept themselves and live openly, without fear or discrimination. This day allows LGBTQ+ people to share their stories and experiences, helping to break down barriers and foster understanding within the wider community.
