And March – The Transgender march is the first parade on Pride Weekend.

Pride Weekend kicks off with the transgender march.

“Gay bubbles” were spread throughout the park.

Supervisor Scott Wiener mingles with the crowd.

“Love is a human right”

Man’s best friend shows its support.

The march was a family friendly event.

The “magick” edibles were a hit.

The SFPD sent officers to make sure the event occurred without incidents.

Hundreds gathered on Friday at Dolores Park to march towards the civic center.

Is Benioff Children’s Hospital part of the Mission District? Pardon my ignorance, but I am from out of town.

  Devin, the main clinic is on Parnassus but there are a number of clinics elsewhere that are listed here. http://www.ucsfbenioffchildrens.org/clinics/index.html Without going through each clinic, I’m unsure if any are in the Mission at SF General. Best, Lyida
