Our Story

 Southern Idaho Pride was founded as a simple Facebook group, offering a safe space for LGBTQIA+ individuals to connect and find events. 

As our community grew, so did our needs. In 2019, we formed a board of directors. 

Southern Idaho Pride, Inc. officially became a non-profit organization. Together with local businesses, organizations, and dedicated volunteers, we've been working tirelessly to support and advocate for the LGBTQIA+ community in Southern Idaho. 

We became the official organizers of the Twin Falls Pride Festival.

The original founders passed the baton to a whole new board, including a new president. The community remains incredibly grateful to the original founders for paving the way.
This is also the year that Southern Idaho Pride and Queer Cupboard created a partnership to organize the Twin Falls Pride Festival.

Southern Idaho Pride hosted the Twin Falls Pride Parade for the first time. Prior to this, the parade was planned and hosted by a local LGBTQIA+ business owner.
