πŸŒˆπŸ’™ New Beginnings Clubhouse at NWI PrideFest 2026 πŸ’™πŸŒˆ

New Beginnings Clubhouse was proud to be part of NWI Pride 2026!

Our members and staff worked side by side to support our vendor table, share information about the Clubhouse model, connect with the community, and promote mental health awareness, inclusion, and belonging throughout the day.

One of our members, Dashawn Peterson, was on double duty during PrideFest, helping represent New Beginnings Clubhouse while also serving on the NWI PrideFest social media team. His involvement reflects the power of community engagement, leadership, and the opportunities that the Clubhouse model can help create.

It was also a special moment running into our former colleague Maddie and reconnecting during the event. Moments like these remind us how connected our community truly is.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth, shared conversations with us, and helped make PrideFest 2026 such a meaningful experience. We are grateful to be part of a community that celebrates inclusion, recovery, and belonging for all. πŸ’™

At New Beginnings Clubhouse, we believe everyone deserves a community where they feel welcomed, valued, respected, and supported for who they are.

As we celebrate Pride Month, we recognize and honor the strength, resilience, and contributions of LGBTQ+ individuals in our community and throughout Northwest Indiana. Pride is a celebration of authenticity, acceptance, and belonging, values that are at the heart of the Clubhouse community.

We are excited to share that New Beginnings Clubhouse will be participating as a community vendor at Northwest Indiana PrideFest on Saturday, June 6, 2026, at Sunset Hill Farm County Park in Valparaiso.
