for newcomers entering the community.

We understand that everyone has various personal commitments
and comfort levels. We hope that you will be involved
as much as you are willing and able. Those involved with
Pride Lafayette are
simply expected to have fun and take advantage of
all that our organization has to offer. In turn, your
voluntary contributions of time and
monetary donations will always be appreciated.
6. What are your membership fees?
As a volunteer organization, Pride Lafayette does
not charge a membership fee. However, we gladly
accept your donation. See our donation page for more
information.
7. I am not politically minded or vocal about my sexuality/gender
identity. If I become involved, will I have to be public about it?
Pride Lafayette is not a political action organization.
Citizens for Civil Rights already fills that role for the GLBTI
community and other area minority groups by working to protect our
civil rights. Pride Lafayette has a more internal focus. We work
within the GLBTI community to effect change in ourselves and improve
our quality of life as citizens of the Greater Lafayette community.
When you become invovled with Pride Lafayette you will find a place
for yourself, whether you choose to be public or private about your
sexuality or gender identity.
