    PRIDE ON PARADE


    WHY A PARADE? EVEN TODAY, WITH ALL OF THE STRIDES THAT HAVE BEEN MADE TOWARDS EQUALITY, GLBT PERSONS ARE FAR TOO-OFTEN PRESSURED INTO KEEPING WHO THEY ARE A SECRET OUT OF FEAR AND SHAME. THE FOCUS OF PRIDE ON PARADE IS TO ALLOW GLBT PERSONS THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE OUT AND PROUD ABOUT WHOM THEY ARE. TO BE PART OF SUCH AN EVENT GIVES HOPE AND STRENGTH TO THOSE WHO ARE STRUGGLING WITH ACCEPTANCE, HELPING THEM TO BE HONEST ABOUT WHO THEY ARE WHEN THEY GO TO WORK, GO TO SCHOOL, OR TALK WITH THEIR FAMILIES. TOGETHER, WE CAN PROVIDE OUR COMMUNITY WITH A PLACE TO COME TOGETHER AND CELEBRATE EACH OTHER IN AN ENVIRONMENT OF SAFETY AND RESPECT. IN 2009 WE MOVED THE PARADE BACK TO DOWNTOWN ON 4TH AVE AND IT WAS A SUCCESS! COME JOIN US IN 2010 BACK ON 4TH AVE WITH EVEN BIGGER PARADE. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING IN THE PARADE FOR 2010 EMAIL INFO@TUCSONPRIDE.ORG OR CALL OUR VOICELINE AT 520-622-3200.
