Pride To Hope is an advocacy and support initiative dedicated to promoting the safety, dignity, and well-being of LGBTQ+ individuals in correctional settings.

Our work focuses on supporting transgender individuals who may face housing placement concerns and gay men who experience bullying, harassment, or discrimination while incarcerated. Through advocacy, education, resource-sharing, and individual support, we strive to ensure that every person is treated with respect and fairness.

We believe that all people deserve dignity, safety, and hope, regardless of their circumstances. Our mission is to raise awareness, support vulnerable individuals, and encourage policies and practices that promote equality and human rights within correctional systems.

At Pride To Hope, we stand for inclusion, compassion, and the belief that every person deserves to be treated with respect.

“Each and every one of us has the capacity to be an oppressor. I want to encourage each and every one of us to ask ourselves: How am I oppressing?”
