Chutney Pride Inc

Chutney Pride is about uniting (LGBT) individuals and heterosexuals of Caribbean descent by bringing together and blending individuals of diverse backgrounds with a common goal of empowerment. Our outreach initiatives, social programs, cultural events and collaborations are designed to promote a positive environment of support and build access for LGBT Caribbean community to become more aware and involved in issues affecting our community. 

Our Mission: 
To add a new perspective to the dialogue on sexual orientation and gender identity by advocating for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) people of Caribbean descent in the New York area. Our advocacy will propose new approaches to community issues and will develop programs promoting tolerance in the face of homophobia and other forms of discrimination. We believe that by creating greater awareness of individual differences, we can build a stronger community based on a culture of understanding and mutual respect.
