Coastal Bend Pride Center

As Pride Month comes to a close, our team celebrated by wearing a different color of the rainbow throughout the week. A reminder that diversity, inclusion, and community are at the heart of everything we do. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

At the Pride Center, our commitment to the LGBTQIA+ community extends far beyond Pride Month. We're here year-round, providing a safe, welcoming space and access to compassionate, affirming care.

Thank you for celebrating with us this month and remember, our doors are always open. Happy Pride! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

This Pride Month, Nick, a member of our Community Health Outreach testing team, sat down with KIII 3 News to discuss the significance of the Coastal Bend Pride Center, the resources available to LGBTQIA+ individuals and families, and why inclusive community spaces matter.

As the only LGBTQIA+ community center south of San Antonio, the Coastal Bend Pride Center serves as a vital resource for people across South Texas. We are proud to provide support groups, educational programs, community events, connection to health care services through the Coastal Bend Wellness Foundation, and a safe, welcoming space where individuals can find connection, support, and a sense of belonging. 🌈

For many, the Pride Center is more than a resource center. It is a safe place where people can be their authentic selves, build meaningful relationships, and know they are not alone. Our doors are open to the community not only during Pride Month, but year- round.

We are incredibly grateful to KIII 3 News for their continued support and for helping us share our mission with the Coastal Bend. Thank you, KIII, for helping us amplify our message and create a more inclusive and connected South Texas. 🏳️‍🌈❤️🏳️‍⚧️

Pride center shares resources Coastal Bend Pride Center leaders highlight LGBTQ+ resources, support services and the importance of Pride Month in South Texas.

🌈 Pride is more than a celebration, it’s a call for inclusion, visibility, and equality. 🌈

This Pride Month, we honor the legacy of Harvey Milk, who reminded us:

"It takes no compromise to give people their rights. It takes no money to respect the individual. It takes no survey to remove repression."

At the Coastal Bend Pride Center, we believe everyone deserves the freedom to live openly, authentically, and without fear. We are committed to creating a community where every LGBTQIA+ person is welcomed, respected, and supported.

🏳️‍🌈 Together, let's continue building a world where all people are seen, heard, valued, and empowered to thrive.

❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
