Our Ask For Your Solidarity: Take Action Now for Queer & Trans New Yorkers!

The mission of NEW Pride Agenda is to advance the economic, health, racial, and gender identity justice needs of marginalized LGBTQ+ individuals in the state of New York. We fundamentally believe that LGBTQ+ rights are civil rights and impact the most important aspects of everyday life from housing to employment. Collaborating with a diverse network of communities and  allies, NPA serves to educate members of the LGBTQ+ community, our allies, and the general public about our legal protections, real-time needs, and pathways to strengthen our rights.

Voted on by mostly lower-income, working class BIPOC LGBTQ+ New Yorkers across the state, we‘re the first statewide LGBTQ+ advocacy organization to democratize the process for determining what we advocate for. The community’s vote, the community’s voice – our 2023 Advocacy Agenda is truly the community’s agenda. Will you stand in solidarity with us?

Our ask is simple: will you contact your representative and tell them to support NEW Pride Agenda's  2023 New York State LGBTQ+ Community Agenda?

We appreciate your consideration, and trust you too are committed to advancing equity, civil liberties, and fundamental freedoms for lower-income gender-expansive BIPOC communities in New York and across the country.
