The goal of Pride Franklin County is to increase the visibility of our LGBTQ community and their contributions to our community, as well as to bring the LGBTQ community and straight allies together to celebrate diversity, acceptance and respect in Franklin County. Read more about why supporting LGBTQ citizens is important for our community on the #WhyPride page.

 

Pride Franklin County (PFC) began in 2018 with a Pride festival, the first ever in Franklin County - and it was a huge success! PFC has since grown to host a variety of events, including Sounds of Pride, Monthly Pride Mixers, the Pride Mum Sale, the Rainbow Sale, and the Pride Franklin County Festival. Additionally, we host a list of LGBTQ+ resources - both local and beyond - and coordinate The Franklin County Welcoming Project to provide a list of safe and welcoming businesses, organizations, health care providers, and faith communities.

PFC is an initiative of the Franklin County Coalition for Progress, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. PFC relies on the generous support of corporations, businesses, individual donors, and volunteers. Learn how to get involved.
