At Pacifica Senior Living we strive to build a culture that is accepting, loving and supportive of everyone. Inclusivity and equality are at the heart of what we do, and part of our core values of care. Through the month of June, many of our communities have been celebrating Pride, a time in which we celebrate love in all its forms.

Pride Month, and events like gay pride parades have been held since 1970, which marked the first pride event. This first demonstration was held as a memorial to the one year anniversary of the Stonewall uprising. Pride is a celebration of the LGBTQ+ community. It is a time to look back on all the hard-fought progress that has been made for LGBTQIA rights and freedoms, as well as reflect on what changes may still be needed.

In celebration of Mother's Day this Sunday May 8th, we reached out to our communities and asked them to share the best advice they could give as a mother, or words of wisdom they once received from their mother.
 
Mothers come in all different sizes, shapes, types and styles - they wear many different hats, and take on a wide variety of roles both within their family and within their personal lives. Moms often are a source of wisdom, insight, and comfort for their families, and for a lot of us, the words and wisdom our moms pass down can be some of the most life changing.
