With deep roots of inclusion and acceptance, New Hope is home to a diverse, caring, and welcoming community. New Hope Celebrates (NHC) along with volunteers work closely with local and regional businesses to advance LGBTQ+ tourism. NHC, a member of InterPride (an international organization that unites Pride organization throughout the world), hosted Northeast Regional Pride conferences. Pride organizers share best practices in event planning, human rights activism, and social advocacy.
More and more faith communities aren’t just engaging in dialogue around LGBTQ+ equality, they are leading the conversation. New Hope is blessed with a supportive faith-based community, bringing light to the hearts and souls of all, regardless of gender or sexual preference. Local faith leaders are there with and for us, out in the community providing solace and prayers during vigils and memorial tributes, presiding over our marriages, and proudly marching in our Pride Parades.
Today we celebrate pride in our history, and tomorrow we will one day celebrate full equality.
