Our Mission

Ladera Valley Pride is dedicated to creating a safe, supportive, and empowering community for LGBTQIA+ individuals and allies in Orange County.

Our Story

Why We Got Started

Our organization was founded to fill a critical gap in LGBTQIA+ resources and community spaces in Rancho Mission Viejo, Ladera Ranch, and surrounding areas. We believe that representation matters and that everyone deserves a place to connect, thrive, and belong.

Commitment to DEI

Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are at the heart of everything we do. We strive to create a space where individuals from all backgrounds, experiences, and identities feel welcome. We are committed to fostering a culture of respect, learning, and advocacy for all members of the LGBTQIA+ community and beyond.
