This Pride Month, we celebrate the LGBTQ+ students and staff who make our community what it is.
Research shows that neurodivergent individuals are more likely to identify as LGBTQ+, and we see that diversity reflected throughout our community.
Our students and staff show us every day that there is no one right way to think, learn, love, or build a life. We are proud to be a place where every identity belongs.
Happy Pride Month from APL! π
