Sacred Heart University is set to host its fifth annual National Coming Out Day celebration on October 9, marking a significant event that encourages LGBTQ+ individuals to embrace their identity and share it with the world. Since its inception in 1988, National Coming Out Day has inspired countless LGBTQ+ individuals to come out of the closet, aiming to show that everyone likely knows someone who is LGBTQ+. Over the years, this movement has gained even more importance as society continues to grow in its acceptance and appreciation of LGBTQ+ individuals and the diverse value they bring to our communities.
This year, Sacred Heart University will welcome Miss Connecticut 2024 Shavana Clarke, as the event’s keynote speaker. Clarke is a trailblazer, becoming the first openly le***an Miss Connecticut. She is also an entrepreneur, model, and first-generation Jamaican American. Clarke has used her platform to speak candidly about mental health, drawing on her own personal experiences. With a BFA in Acting, she has performed in regional theater and numerous off-Broadway productions, making her a distinguished figure in both the pageant and performing arts worlds.
