Join AARP at PRIDE In The Park
Join us at "The Center: 7 Rivers LGBTQ Connection’s PRIDE in the Park" on Saturday, September 7th from 11 am to 6 pm at Riverside Park in downtown La Crosse. Our local volunteers will be on hand to answer questions and give away great prizes.
AARP-WI is excited to participate in PRIDE in the Park because our unwavering commitment to the LGBT community reflects our core belief in the dignity, worth, and potential of every individual. We reject discrimination based on a person’s age, race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or gender identity. We see diversity as a source of strength. For us, LGBT communities are a vital part of the quilt of American life.
Our commitment can be measured by what we say—and what we do. In our policy work at the community, state, and national levels, as we collaborate with other organizations serving multicultural communities, in our role as an employer, as a purchaser of supplies, as an active participant in community events, we are proud to stand with LGBT members, non-members, allies and other critical stakeholders.
At AARP, we work hard every day to fight for and equip individuals to live their best lives. “What we do, we do for all” is a guiding principle articulated by our founder, distinguished educator Dr. Ethel Percy Andrus, and we proudly carry it forward.
