DIVERSITY COLLECTIVE VC

Ventura County Pride Festival is a weekend-long event in August with over 5,000 attendees that celebrate the LGBTQ community, supporters, and allies in Ventura County. All proceeds raised go to sustain the Community Resource Center and Diversity Collective programs and services. These services include free anonymous HIV & AIDS testing, peer-support groups, cultural competency training, and Rainbow Umbrella Youth Group, a safe space for LGBTQ youth and their allies. The work of Diversity Collective is essential 365 days a year, as we offer support and resources for a marginalized community. Pride Weekend is a time for Ventura County's LGBTQ+ Community to celebrate, stand out and stand proud... Our mission for Pride weekend is to educate, advocate, and celebrate the LGBTQ community while providing a platform for those most marginalized in our own community. We promote diversity, education, mental and physical health to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and Latinx..
