Jasmyn hosts 14th annual Stride for Pride

Jasmyn’s 14th annual Strides for Pride returned to the Riverside Arts Market (RAM) space at the Northbank Riverwalk Artist Square on Sunday, April 27.

More than 1,100 residents turned out for a 5k run/walk and a one-mile fun run/walk to benefit Jasmyn, which has provided a safe space for LGBTQIA+ youth and young adults in the greater Jacksonville area for more than 30 years. Participants and supporters were able to enjoy bites from The Little Brunch Truck and The Greenhouse Bar.
