GenPride GenPride empowers LGBTQ+ seniors in King County through advocacy, education, and innovative programs that promote connection and wellness.

From social events to resources and support, we're building a community where everyone can age with pride. At GenPride we advocate for the unique needs of older LGBTQIA+ adults, offer innovative programs and services that promote wellbeing and prevent social isolation, cultivate belonging through community connection, and work to eliminate discrimination in all its forms.

🏳️‍🌈 Our Homes, Our Power: Housing Justice is Q***r Justice

Q***r and trans people deserve more than survival. We deserve safety, stability, and a place to call home.

Join us for a Renters’ Rights & Advocacy Workshop designed for older LGBTQIA+ adults. We’ll stay grounded in collective power and learn how to advocate for ourselves and fight housing injustice together.
