We Are So Happy You Are Here
"A Call-In Is Actually A Call-Out Done With Love And Respect"
-Loretta Ross
Our Vision
Founded in 2020, The SJ Call-In Coalition is calling in the community to celebrate differences, create relationships, empower disenfranchised groups and to foster diversity in an effort to create a more INCLUSIVE, SAFER and HEALTHIER community!
2023 is here! We want to know if you will take the pledge this year and become an UPStander in the community with us! Having hard conversations with others is one of the first steps when creating a SAFER, HEALTHIER more INCLUSIVE community.
Take the journey with us this year and engage in workshops and community building along the way! Check out our events page for updated events!

DISCLOSURE:
We want to just say up front, we do not know all there is to know about
DIVERSITY, EQUITY, and INCLUSION.
We are a group of community members that have a passion to learn more about those topics and to apply what we learn to the St. Johns community to make a positive impact.
We are raising money for decorations, entertainment and everything in between for our yearly Pride Event held downtown St. Johns! I know some people want to get involved but don't have the time to donate, but might have some money to donate! Anything will help! We want this event to be bigger and better than last year, and with your help we will get there!
PRIDE EVENT
Third Place Coming April 19th 2024
"I would like the Third Place Center to represent the support system that so many LGBTQIA+ youth are devoid of. While some people may be sympathetic to the struggles of queer youth, they will never be able to empathize. The Third Place Center provides an opportunity that many young people who are LGBTQIA+ identifying are not fortunate enough to have—the opportunity to further explore themselves and their identities in a truly supportive and understanding place." -Clinton County Resident
We believe one way to combat stereotypes and biases is to CREATE RELATIONSHIPS with people who are different than you.
We will do our part to end stereotypes and biases by spotlighting a SJ business or individual every month in an effort to get to know the people in our neighborhood and to CELEBRATE OUR DIFFERENCES.
Check out the "These Our The People In Our Neighborhood" page to learn about the people in our community!
