🌈 Happy Pride Month from CT State Capital! 🌈

This month, we celebrate the LGBTQ+ community and reaffirm our commitment to fostering a welcoming, inclusive, and supportive environment where everyone belongs.

Looking for ways to celebrate locally? Downtown Hartford is hosting several events throughout June, across the street from campus, including:

• Hartford Taste Festival (June 5–7) on Pratt and Trumbull Streets, featuring food, music, art, and community activities.

• Capital City Pride (June 13), just steps from our campus, with Pride on Pratt, a family-friendly street fair on Pratt Street, followed by PrideFEST at Mortensen Riverfront Plaza and an evening afterparty.

• Salsa Social on Pratt Street (June 26), bringing live music, dancing, and community engagement to downtown Hartford.

As a campus located in the heart of Hartford, we're proud to celebrate Pride alongside our students, employees, and neighbors.

CT State Capital recently hosted the Capital Career Advancement Program End-of-Semester Presentations, where scholar interns and scholar apprentices from the Travelers EDGE, LAZ, and Intact programs reflected on their experiences, shared what they’ve learned throughout the year, and discussed their future career goals.

Students also took time to recognize and thank Program Coordinator John Thomas, along with the dedicated partners from Travelers, LAZ, and Intact, for their mentorship, guidance, and continued support throughout their journey.

We are proud of our students and grateful for the strong partnerships that continue to create meaningful opportunities for student success, professional growth, and career advancement.
