Commissioners Proclaim June as LGBTQ+ Pride Month

The Boulder County Commissioners proclaimed June as LGBTQ+ Pride Month in Boulder County. The Boulder County Government proudly celebrates LGBTQ+ people and their achievements, contributions, and the ongoing fight for equality every June.

In January, the commissioners reaffirmed their commitment to awareness and heritage months. The commissioners emphasized that Boulder County will continue to celebrate the contributions of the diverse groups that make our county strong, successful, and resilient – while acknowledging that the history of these groups is American history and includes both successes and tragedies.

As outlined in the commissioners’ Proclamation Recognizing 2026 Heritage and Identity Months in Boulder County, heritage months recognize and celebrate the contributions of underrepresented groups, and help people understand their own identities. They enable us to honor the achievements and contributions of groups whose histories are often absent from traditional narratives of U.S. history or misrepresented altogether.

Heritage and identity-based months teach people about the histories and cultures of different groups, help people understand their own cultures and identities, encourage people to appreciate the rich cultural heritage and diversity of Boulder County, Colorado, and the United States, and prompt people to reflect on past struggles and successes.
