About Us

We're Glad You're Here.

The NEPA Rainbow Alliance has a vision. We hope you’ll be a part of it.

We envision a future where all people in Northeastern Pennsylvania can live openly and free from fear; where individuals, organizations, and businesses work collaboratively to provide an equal, inclusive community; and where we celebrate and nurture our diversity. It all starts with educating and empowering our volunteers to create strategic, peer-driven, sustainable programming overseen by strengthened volunteer leadership.

The NEPA Rainbow Alliance was established in 2004 with the mission to promote a sense
of community, establish and publicize resources, facilitate communication and collaboration, provide a supportive and welcoming venue, and support equality whenever possible for the LGBT+ Community along with its supporters.
