Welcome to New Bern Pride
We are a safe, supportive, and empowering LGBTQIA+ organization—entirely volunteer-run and proudly serving Eastern North Carolina.
Our Mission
New Bern Pride exists to create a lasting, visible, and equitable future for LGBTQIA+ individuals in New Bern and across Eastern North Carolina. We do this by building safe and inclusive third spaces, cultivating vital services, and fostering authentic connections that strengthen our community.
Our mission is not simply to host events, but to step into the gaps where no one else is serving. Through partnerships with nonprofits, businesses, and civic leaders, we bring together resources that advance equity, celebrate diversity, and provide direct support to those who need it most.
We are committed to professionalism, accountability, and transparency as a 501(c)(3) public charity. Our work is driven by three pillars: community, connection, and support.
