Pride is a global movement that stands for equality and celebration of diversity for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, intersex, queer, questioning, two-spirited and their allies. Pride is a way to honour and respect all people regardless of gender identity or sexual orientation, to recognize our differences and uniqueness and to promote and build community through education and understanding. The City of Humboldt has made this proclamation annually since 2019.
