The Cranbrook Pride Society is a volunteer-driven, not-for-profit organization dedicated to promoting, empowering, and celebrating the 2SLGBTQIA+ community in Cranbrook and the surrounding region. Our mission is to foster inclusion, acceptance, and education for all, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. We are committed to creating safe, welcoming environments where members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community can gather without fear of hate or prejudice.

Our work is a journey of continuous growth and learning. Through diverse events, educational programs, and strategic partnerships, we aim to build spaces where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued. We believe in the transformative power of visibility and the importance of building a society where people can live their truth openly and authentically.

As we stand together, we celebrate the richness of our diversity and work toward a future where love and acceptance are universal. Join us in making a meaningful impact, one step at a time.

The Cranbrook Pride Society respectfully acknowledges that we live, work, and gather on the traditional, unceded territories of the Ktunaxa and Kinbasket people. We recognize the ongoing impact of colonialism and the legacy of discriminatory and racist practices that paved the way for our presence here. We are committed to honouring, listening, and continuously learning from the diverse perspectives of Indigenous Peoples, as we strive to be allies in the path toward reconciliation.
