Tomorrow is Topsfield's Pride Parade. Although that's a bit of a misnomer because it's only held in Topsfield, it's not actually run by the town. Volunteers from the Tri-Town Human Rights Coalition organize the award winning parade, now in its fourth year.

Out Leadership index recently rated Massachusetts as the best place to live and conduct business for the LGBTQ community, and I can attest that we wouldn't want to live anywhere else. Keeping our children safe is obviously important and right now, Massachusetts is a relatively safe place for our child, and Topsfield is one of the safest towns in the state.

Thank you to the volunteers who make sure our families are represented and supported.
