Thanksgiving Day


ree

🦃 This Thanksgiving Day — celebrated every fourth Thursday in November — invites us to pause in gratitude, gather in community, and reflect on both our blessings and responsibilities. Wikipedia+2Smithsonian Institution+2

In today’s evolving social landscape, this tradition holds new layers of meaning:

ā— It reminds us of the enduring power of community and connection, especially at times when many are facing isolation or displacement.

ā— It offers a moment for thankfulness and care, aligning with current emphases on mental wellness, intergenerational connection, and social inclusion.

ā— It encourages us to recognize our diverse histories and the many voices that contribute to the narrative of belonging and mutual support. Potawatomi.org+1


At LGBT Senior Housing and Care, we see Thanksgiving as an opportunity to affirm that every resident, every story, and every identity matters. We honor our LGBTQ+ elders’ lived

experience, their resilience, and the generational links they help build — across families, friendships, and chosen communities.

This Thanksgiving, we invite you to:

ā— Reach out to someone you may not have connected with in a while

ā— Bring intentional gratitude into your shared meal — including gratitude for visibility, dignity, and acceptance

ā— Acknowledge that for some in our community, ā€œhomeā€ might look different — and our shared goal is community

ā— Support inclusive housing, advocacy, and social support systems that make belonging more accessible for all


Here’s to nourishment in body and spirit, to conversation that bridges generations, and to building homes and hearts where welcome is unwavering. From all of us at LGBT Senior Housing and Care — happy Thanksgiving. šŸŒˆšŸ‚
