Mississippi in Action

10/11/2026

On National Coming Out Day, Mississippi in Action celebrates LGBTQ+ people and honors everyone’s right to decide if, when, how, and with whom they come out. No one owes anyone disclosure, and no one should be pressured or outed. Whether you’re out, exploring, or keeping your identity private, you deserve love, safety, and dignity.

🌈 Your truth. Your time. Your choice.

Juneteenth is less than three weeks away and we need your help to spread the word.

Know of a cookout, concert, program, parade or community gathering happening to celebrate? Submit it to the MFP events calendar and we'll get it in front of folks across the state.

And this goes for anything you're putting on in your community: farmers markets, running clubs, town halls, makerspaces—you name it. We're building a statewide calendar that actually reflects what's happening in every part of Mississippi, and we can't do it without you.
