June reminds us that our community is made stronger by the many stories that shape it.
As we celebrate Pride Month and Immigrant Heritage Month, we honor our immigrant, refugee, and LGBTQ+ neighbors who help make Lincoln a vibrant and welcoming place to call home.
Belonging means being seen, respected, and valued for who you are. Together, we can continue building a community where everyone has the opportunity to thrive!
Happy Pride Month and Immigrant Heritage Month from the Asian Center! ๐๐๐

Immigrant youth voices matter! In 2025, Asian Center youth programs served over 370 students through one-on-one mentoring, academic support, community building, and cultural celebration.
Our Untold Migrant Stories Showcase brings students together to share their stories across cultures through creative expression, exploring identity and belonging. One group of friends even created a podcast detailing their experiences as refugee kids acclimating to life in Lincoln. Check out their podcast here: https://bit.ly/3PUNYuM
