It's hard to believe that three years ago — with a whole lot of hope, and a dream that was a lifetime in the making — Did Juno opened on January 22nd. It feels surreal, especially when looking back on everything that has happened within the last three years.
Each year feels less like a different chapter and instead a skip to a different timeline. This year, we tackled new, challenging, and exciting things. We met some of our favorite people, collaborated with friends, and connected with so many folx along the way.
As we enter our fourth year, we cannot help but look back in fondness on everything we have accomplished in years one and two. Our third year was just as wonderful and our most successful yet.
Looking back on the year, here are some moments that stood out.

Did Juno Fortifies Communicators for the Future
During this past year, we recognized the possibility of an even greater oppressive outcome in November. Now, we are here, and the only way out is through — together.
Our CEO was as a federal watchdog communicator during the first Trump presidency. They saw firsthand the challenges organizations faced. Now, they empower individuals and organizations in their ongoing fight for liberation.
Last year, they co-hosted twelve free trainings on communications best practices. This year, the Set Yourself Up series is starting the year by offering trainings to specifically fortify communicators for Trump's second term.
These next four years will be challenging. They will attempt to rob us of joy, fill us with dread, and make the fight for a better future feel futile. But, they cannot take our love for one another, our joy for the little things, and our ability to laugh. The struggles we face today have been fought before, and now it is our turn to overcome them again. They did endure alone then, and we cannot navigate this alone now. This is a time for inspired collaboration and unwavering community.
We are so thankful these last three years brought us into community with so many incredible people. We look forward to continuing this mission with you and meeting even more amazing folx in our steadfast journey toward progress.

What's Next?
Year four is going to be challenging — and the next four years will be too. But together, we will make it through.
In the meantime, we will continue working alongside change-makers, community builders, and activists. It won't be easy, but we've got this. And most importantly, we have each other.
Thank you for making this disabled and queer-owned small business possible. We could not exist without your support.
