"Building a Better Future for our LBGTQ+ Community"

Fort Dodge Pride Festival is an organization established out of a need to build a better community for LBGTQ+ people in Fort Dodge, the education systems, and the surrounding area. We are committed to building relationships within the community, by building bridges with people in the community and other groups in our area. We are committed to maintaining a community that recognizes and values the

inherent worth and dignity of every person regardless of sexual identity, gender identity or race, that fosters mutual respect among its directors and volunteers, and encourages each individual to reach their own potential by building momentum for the equitable treatment of people. We are a community of volunteers who identify as gay, le***an, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, q***r, asexual, aromantic, or other non-heterosexual, non-cisgender identies, as well as heterosexual and cisgender allies. We strive to do work that promotes community building among LGBTQIA+ people, to educate the community on issues affecting LGBTQIA+ people, and to facilitate an environment that values the intersectional identities of all people living in and around the City of Fort Dodge, IA.

Reminder that today is primary elections day, this is the day we narrow down the field to one person per political party per job. If you ever wondered how you can make a difference and bring about change it starts today and then again in Nov. No matter who you vote for the important part is that you go out and vote. I know it seems like voting doesn't matter but it does. Most local elections are won by only a handful of votes and change starts at the local level. When your done let's see your stickers!!
