About this service
Windsor-Essex Pride Fests goal is to empower Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans*, Queer, Questioning, Intersex and Two Spirit (LGBTIQ2S) individuals through its social and recreation programs and facilitate opportunities for connection and belonging to reduce social isolation. This is done through age-specific activities, peer-facilitated groups, workshops and special events/initiatives.
Members of the LGBTIQ2S community experience unique social isolation compared with other marginalized groups. Research indicates that the individuals in the LGBTTQIA community are 2.5 times more likely to live alone. The lack of peer or social supports, activities, gatherings or other opportunities to engage with peers in the community may cause social isolation that often escalates into a number of other problems, including homelessness, depression, violence, suicidal ideation, drug and alcohol abuse and dropping out of school for some LGBTIQ2S youth.
Programs: social, recreational, support and wellness.
