We have heard the concerns of the QTBIPOC community and others. It is clear to us that our community needs and wants change without the involvement of Boston Pride.

We are grateful for all who have been involved in this process. Over the past year, we have invested time and energy to address the concerns of the community, both with our Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Access work with Dorrington & Saunders and by forming the Transformation Advisory Committee comprised of members of the LGBTQIA+ community to help bring change to our organization. Over the past 50 years, Boston Pride has facilitated programs and events that have changed our society and promoted equality, but we know there is still work to be done. We strived to foster an environment of diversity and unity within our organization and the community.

For years, we have volunteered our time with Boston Pride because we care about and are passionate about the LGBTQIA+ community.
