From Survival to Solidarity

Hello,
Im Mark DeLancey; former Executive Director for Salisbury PFLAG. For years, we’ve talked about what it means to belong on the Eastern Shore. But belonging is just the baseline. I’ve realized that I no longer want our community to just survive the day—I want us to own the future.
Together We Thrive isn’t just a new name; it’s a promise to your future. We are moving out of the fog and inviting you into the sunlight where every one of us has an opportunity to a brighter future together. Today, the work begins. Let’s go!
