On April 2 people around the world will celebrate their individuality and acknowledge everyone’s right to dignity and respect, and to be allowed the freedom to be who they are – without shame, judgment, attack or censure.
Plano Mayor Harry LaRosiliere will kick off “Everyone Matters Day” at Rice Elementary School at 10:00 AM on Thursday, April 2nd. The Mayor will be visiting with Rice students, who created a giant “Everyone Matters” tree comprised of hundreds of hands (see attachment). Students, parents, teachers, supporting staff members and administrators added their hands to the tree, affirming everyone matters.
Mayor LaRosiliere joins more than 30 other mayors across the nation who are adding their voice to the growing movement. The Mayors are posting #IAM selfies (attached) in affirming pride-in-identity and inviting residents to upload their own #IAM selfie to celebrate their own uniqueness.
