Our June Newsletter

 

June has always been an important month for Seleni as we honor Father's Day and Pride Month. We reflect on what it means to be part of a family and how families often look different in every household. It is important to recognize families holistically and with the understanding that each family faces its unique obstacles. We also want to recognize and applaud all of the fathers and father figures in our community for their commitment to their loved ones in a world that is increasingly challenging to navigate.

With the new ruling from the Supreme Court, we want to validate all the feelings that our community may be experiencing at this time. We stand with our community to protect the freedoms of every family, in every form, and support you in making private decisions you make each day in the best interest of your families. 

As always, Seleni is here to help and we encourage you to please reach out to us if you or a loved one needs support.
