Counseling Connect, PLLC recently collaborated with Community Pride in Blacksburg and Moon Hollow Brewing to celebrate Pride month with a drag show! Check out our album of photos! https://www.facebook.com/media/set?vanity=counselingconnectpllc&set=a.816456700577218
Thanks to our awesome turnout, we were able to donate over $700 to Point of Pride, an organization that provides financial aid and gender affirming support for trans folks in need of healthcare. https://www.pointofpride.org/
This event was developed as a social justice project by our always optimistic clinician, Elle Ryan, Resident in Counseling.

From all of us at Counseling Connect, we thank Community Pride in Blacksburg and their amazing performers: Adoor Bell, Jezzi Belle, Shanda Leer, and Bromeo!
