Fayetteville Pride's Mission

Our mission is to instill pride, celebrate unity, and embrace diversity and inclusiveness in our LGBTQ* community and allies, and to provide a support network and educational advocacy group dedicated to increasing awareness and acceptance.

Objectives:

  • To create visibility and promote full human and civil rights through education, celebrations, and networking to the extent allowed by our nonprofit status.
  • To provide a support network for the LGBTQ* community and its allies.
  • To serve as an educational service and resource to LGBTQ* individuals, to their allies and to the community at large.
  • To advocate within the Fayetteville area for increased awareness and acceptance of the LGBTQ* community.
  • To work toward a future without discrimination where all people have equal rights under the law by producing LGBTQ* PRIDE events that inspire, educate, commemorate and celebrate our diverse community.  
  • To model diversity and inclusion within our organization and for the people we serve.
  • To maintain an inclusive environment with equitable treatment for all. Specifically, historically marginalized communities including Black, Indigenous, and People of Color.
  • To respect and value diverse life experiences and heritages, and ensure that all voices are valued and heard.
