Your #1 Resonsibility
Create a warm and welcome Pride for all!
Pride is a time to celebrate our resistance & existence, our individuality, and our shared understanding of community together. There is room for everyone at Pride!
As a volunteer for Pride, your primary responsibility is to ensure our community feels welcome, safe, and encouraged to celebrate our LGBTQ+ identity and sense of belonging.
Be kind, and remember to have fun and connect with new members of our community.
