About the High Desert Pride Center – Building LGBTQIA+ Community in the Victor Valley
The High Desert Pride Center is a grassroots LGBTQIA+ organization serving the Inland Empire, Victor Valley and surrounding High Desert communities. Born out of the Rainbow GSA, at St. Hilary’s Episcopal Church in Hesperia and HDPD's LGBTQ+ Caucus, the Pride Center creates safe, affirming, and empowering spaces through monthly LGBTQ History Brunches, community-building events like Karaoke Nights, and large-scale celebrations such as the annual Pride Festival and LGBTQ+ Prom. Our mission is to uplift queer voices, foster inclusion, and build strong partnerships with local organizations, schools, and civic leaders. As we continue to grow, the Pride Center remains committed to advocacy, education, and creating a more vibrant and visible future for LGBTQIA+ individuals in the High Desert.
