Holyoke For All - Holyoke Para Todos

Holyoke For All - Holyoke Para Todos In 2010 we have changed our Name to Holyoke For All – Holyoke Para Todos.

H.F.A./ H.P.T., seeks to identify and serve through advocacy, community service, social activates and support needs of the LGBTQ Community in the Greater Holyoke Area. OUR HISTORY:

In December 2006, under the leadership of Alex Morse, President of Holyoke High School, GSA, that he formed a task force of likeminded individuals who believed in establishing and creating a fully free LGBTQ Pride Pro

m, for LGBTQ Youth whom are unable to attend their own prom due to their sexual orientation. The initial name of the group was the Holyoke GLBTQ Task Force, since then the focus has shifted to become a full fledged quasi non profit agency, which will service the LGBTQ Community with a specific emphasis on Youth and LGBTQ of Color, while still respecting the need for a free LGBTQ Pride Prom. OUR VISION:

We envision, Holyoke as a City that recognizes the dignity of all LGBTQ people, celebrates their diversity and embraces full human rights for all people living in the City of Holyoke
