The purpose of the Pride Community Center is to (1) educate the public about sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, (2) advocate for civil rights under law and social equality for the Community, (3) provide resources like cultural services, emotional support, mental health services, health information and avenues for personal growth to enhance self-esteem, (4) strive to eliminate prejudice and discrimination against the Community, and (5) develop outreach programs promoting a harmonious relationship between the Community and citizens of the Brazos Valley. The Pride Community Center intends to create a safe space for the Community to assemble for the above-cited purposes free of discrimination, violence, taunting, and fear.

Yes! We love volunteers. There are multiple ways that you can volunteer. We always need volunteers for events, but you can also volunteer to be on the Board of Directors or committees.
The easiest way, next to checking the website, is to get on our mailing list. We send out approximately 3-4 mailings each month. All of your information is private. Visit the the “Get Involved” page to sign up for the newsletters or send an email to info@pridecc.org.
The way we look at it is that everyone in the LGBTQ+ community is already a member. We do have membership levels as a form of support for PCC. For more information about becoming a supporting member visit the membership page.
