On June 29, 2025, Pittsburgh’s North Hills LGBTQ+ community came together for Fox Chapel’s Pride in the Park, a youth-centered and family-focused celebration. The event welcomed LGBTQ+ caregivers, their children, and all chosen families, emphasizing connection and affirmation. Participants enjoyed music, engaging activities, and outdoor games, all while celebrating love, community, and the diverse families within the LGBTQ+ spectrum.
