Through these events, we strive to not only celebrate our LGBTQ+ homeowners, volunteers and community members, but also to shed light on the decades of systemic LGBTQ+ housing discrimination that have barred families and individuals from homeownership, creating biases and inequities that exist today. 

Check out photos below from a Pride Build at Southern Crescent Habitat for Humanity in Jonesboro, Georgia. 

The event was a collaboration between the affiliate and Spectrum, an employee resource group at Habitat for Humanity International for LGBTQ+ employees and their allies that aims to raise awareness, promote inclusivity and actively support Habitat’s mission of providing decent housing for everyone.
