The Hoboken Pride Advisory Committee’s mission is to promote inclusiveness for all Hoboken residents, workers, and students by raising awareness of unique issues faced by LGBTQIA+ members of the Hoboken community, proposing solutions to address those issues, and fostering a culture of acceptance and affirmation of diverse sexual orientations and gender identities. The Hoboken Pride Advisory Committee furthers this mission by recommending and supporting community-building activities and outreach aimed at preventing discrimination and violence toward LGBTQIA+ individuals and celebrating the diversity of sexual and gender identities within the Hoboken community.
The Committee was established by Executive Order in 2024 by Mayor Ravi S. Bhalla.
