The 18th Annual

Coming Out Day Breakfast

Thank You for an Amazing Coming Out Day Breakfast

Wow everyone! We’re so grateful to everyone who made this year’s Coming Out Day Breakfast unforgettable. From our amazing sponsors, vendors, and volunteers to the city officials and our dedicated staff—you helped create a truly unforgettable morning.

We’re especially grateful to Jim Fielding for delivering such an impactful and inspiring keynote speech. His words resonated deeply with everyone in the room, reminding us of the power of community and the importance of standing together to support LGBTQIA+ teens and young adults in Northeast Florida.

It was wonderful to see our community gather at the Hyatt Regency Jacksonville Riverfront to celebrate the courage of coming out and to show love and solidarity for the youth we serve. Together, we stood as One Heart, One Community, and we can’t wait to do it all again next year!

Video highlights coming soon. Thank you for being part of this incredible journey with us! ❤️
