Mission: Hudson Pride Connections is the only organization in Hudson County, NJ that provides targeted social services for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) residents, to provide social support, health education and advocacy, HIV/STI prevention and outreach services to the often underserved and disenfranchised LGBT community; and social services for men, women and teens living with HIV in the region. HPC bridges the gap in service for these underserved populations.
Programs: They are a community based organization serving northern new jersey supporting individuals with hiv/aids through advocacy and peer group networks. They also provide support for gay, lesbian, transgender and bisexual individuals.
This grassroots community center has grown over the last 15 years of service to become a fixture in the Northern New Jersey region in service of the LGBT community. The organization owns the first and only building owned by and for the LGBT community in the state of New Jersey, and has a reputation for incredible social service and exciting programming. I am lucky to have been involved, and even more excited to see the organization keep growing!
