From Vittorio Veneto, in the Province of Treviso, to Catania: Arcobaleno Families, the Italian Association of homosexual parents, returns to twelve Italian squares and parks to celebrate the celebration together with supporters, allies, parents and children looking for new friendships. family festival 2024, open as per tradition to all types of families.
“Ten years after the first edition in Florence in 2014 – explains president Alessia Crocini – we are still here to party, but above all to talk about ourselves and claim rights for our daughters and sons: some are now adults and have not yet seen a law that recognizes them as the children of two mothers or two fathers”.
“Families to the rescue – continues Crocini – is the slogan chosen for this Family Day because for more than twenty years the regulatory vacuum has forced us into a continuous race to conquer those rights that are denied to us. This government has managed to erase even the few gains achieved in the municipalities, to persecute couples of mothers like in Padua and is preparing to approve a law that wants to make childbearing for others a universal crime. And that will weigh like a boulder on the lives of children and young people who were born thanks to those paths.
“Families to the rescue” because they are the target of an ideological government and an evil and populist policy. A slogan that speaks of rights to be conquered, of struggles to be waged, of the desire to react. It talks about us, today, and about the Italy that doesn’t exist yet but that we want to build.”
The Family Day, which is celebrated in Italy in April-May as part of the International Families Equality Day, will be celebrated in Campania on May 5th in the municipal villa of Greek’s tower give her 10am to 2pm with the patronage of the Mayor, the municipal administration, the Campania Region and with the support of the Campania Rainbow Coordination and various LGBTQIA+ associations in the area.
We hope many of you will come.
