A Unique and Inspiring Ceremony Recognizing Those Who
Dedicate Their Time and Resources for Our LGBTQ+ Community
Project No Labels presents a night honoring those who
work diligently on behalf of empowering and improving the Tampa
Bay LGBTQ+ community through a participant recognition awards
ceremony.
The Pride Legacy Awards highlights local leaders, individuals,
and businesses dedicating themselves to the LGBTQ+ community
through time and/or resources.
We invite you to join us for a unique night of recognizing those
who may not otherwise have their generosity highlighted.
Project No Labels and the LGBTQ+ community thrives only
because of these individuals and organizations! That’s why it’s
of the utmost importance to spotlight these outstanding honorees
for their selfless efforts and successes.
“We must recognize the amount of volunteer time businesses
and individuals put into the community and encourage others
to do the same." - Claire Elisan, Executive Director
- Project No Labels
Project No Labels is a 501c3 non-profit organization whose Mission
is to unite the LGBTQ+ community with our straight allies through
positive activities and events while promoting volunteerism
and activism.
A primary goal of Project No Labels in 2020 and forward,
is to make Mental Wellness attainable for everyone. "For
the past four years, Project No Labels has been involved in
different spheres of social issues. People have always felt
comfortable to talk to us about the pressing issues around the
community. One issue that really stuck out to us is Mental Health
Care. It seems like people needed hope, inspiration, and better
coping mechanisms," explained Claire Elisan. "For too
long, mental health therapy has been out of reach or out of
mind for many who truly needed it. This program is an affordable
opportunity for personal growth."
From January 6 to April 28, 2020, Project No Labels
will assist in opening the gates to affordable therapy sessions
to the local communities. The resulting pilot program "Dear
Self You Are Worth It" is in collaboration with Dr. Katie
Schubert, a licensed Mental Health Counselor, a Board Certified
Sex Therapist in the State of Florida, and a Nationally Certified
Counselor. Steph Ostrow, a Clinical Mental Health Counseling
Student Intern, will provide the therapy, supervised by the
doctor.
The program was created to bridge the existing gap between the
need for mental health care and the financial burden that limits
its access. "It is Project No Labels' effort to make mental
health care attainable. Each session will cost $30 per hour;
however, the cost to the community is only $20 per hour. Our
organization is picking up the additional $10. We are also looking
to do a voucher program for anyone who needs the service but
can't afford the $20. To some, it's either gas in the tank or
food on the family's table versus $20 for their mental health.
Unfortunately, they're forced to sacrifice their psychological
well-being.”
"This program is incredibly important. Mental health care
is expensive, and a lot of people don't have health insurance
policies to cover sessions. Our community is suffering from
high rates of depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues.
This is a great opportunity to see an expert and find happiness
and peace in your life." - Dr. Katie Schubert
We are currently looking for Sponsorship Partners for this program
for both the cost to Project No Labels as well as the
voucher program to cover the entire cost for anyone who can't
afford it but is in need. Pride Legacy Awards will also
serve as a fundraiser event for our new Mental Health Program,
Dear Self You Are Worth It and our operational cost for
2020.
