About Us:

• Poughkeepsie Pride was first created in 2019 by Dutchess County Pride Center (DCPC), and has grown every year since. We’ve gone from just the Pride march in June to a host of activities across the county.

• DCPC offers monthly social and support groups for members of the LGBTQ+ Community
