Join Johnson County Pride in HRC's National Day of Reading! We have a wonderful afternoon planned of reading books, building connection, and offering support to one another!
All are welcome!
We will be reading books for younger kids at 4:00 PM and 5:00 PM with time for connection for teens and adults before, after, or during!
A little history from the HRC regarding National Day of Reading:
In 2015, an anti-LGBTQ+ hate group forced a school in Wisconsin to cancel plans to read “I am Jazz” in support of a transgender student. In response, more than 600 residents in a town of less than 8,000 showed up at a public reading organized by a parent to show the students that the community had their back.
Every year, in honor of the Mount Horeb community’s allyship, communities across the country join HRCF's Welcoming Schools program for its annual National Day of Reading: A Celebration of Trans Stories.
