About Us
Creating an Inclusive, Empowering Community for All
Our Story
Pride in Swan was founded with a simple yet powerful mission: to create a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment for LGBTIQA+SB individuals and allies in northern Perth and surrounding communities. Recognising a gap in resources and community spaces for LGBTIQA+SB people in this region, we established Pride in Swan as a welcoming organisation dedicated to celebrating diversity and promoting equality.
Our Mission
At Pride in Swan, we believe that everyone deserves a place where they feel valued, respected, and free to express their true selves. Our mission is to provide support, advocacy, and community-building opportunities that empower LGBTIQA+SB individuals and promote understanding across all backgrounds.
What We Do
Our work is guided by three core pillars:
- Support: Offering accessible resources, peer support, and mental health services to enhance well-being.
- Education: Conducting workshops, seminars, and awareness programs to foster a deeper understanding and acceptance of LGBTIQA+SB identities.
- Community Engagement: Creating spaces and events that connect people, build friendships, and celebrate the strength and diversity of our community.
Our Vision for the Future
As Pride in Swan grows, we envision a thriving community where LGBTIQA+SB individuals of all ages and backgrounds feel safe, supported, and empowered. Our goal is to expand our impact through partnerships, community-driven events, and sustainable initiatives that contribute to a more inclusive society for all.
Join Us
Whether you’re a member of the LGBTIQA+SB community, an ally, or simply passionate about fostering inclusivity, we welcome you to join us in our mission. Together, we can create a community where everyone feels they truly belong.
