Gateway City Pride Association
Gateway City Pride Association is Laredo’s primary LGBTQ+ advocacy organization, organizing Pride celebrations, community events, and visibility campaigns in a border city that has often lacked formal queer representation. The organization secured Laredo’s first-ever official Pride Proclamation in 2021 — a landmark milestone in a conservative South Texas municipality. Operating along the Texas-Mexico border, Gateway City Pride serves a majority Latinx LGBTQ+ community and builds bridges between queer Laredo residents and broader statewide and national LGBTQ+ networks.
