Woonsocket Pride’s mission is to unite the LGBTQ+ community of Woonsocket and Northern Rhode Island with a celebration of culture and change, divesting from corporate presences and centering the voices of our community most impacted by oppression. As a growing organization with roots as a protest, Woonsocket Pride will uplift all of the Queer community with a specific focus on BIPOC, transgender, and non-binary members, recognizing that many in the community have been ignored and silenced. Our focus is to serve Woonsocket and its surrounding areas with not just celebration and safety, but direct action through fundraising, peer support, advocacy, and visibility.
