Volunteer With Affirmation at Utah Pride 2026
Help create visible, affirming LGBTQ+ community spaces at Utah Pride on June 6–7 in Salt Lake City.
Affirmation: LGBTQ Mormons, Families & Friends is excited to participate in Utah Pride 2026 on June 6–7 in Salt Lake City — and we’re inviting volunteers from across Utah to join us.
Utah Pride is one of the largest LGBTQ+ community events in the Intermountain West, bringing together tens of thousands of LGBTQ+ individuals, families, allies, organizations, and supporters from throughout Utah and neighboring states. For many people, Pride is more than a celebration. It is a place to feel seen, supported, connected, and welcomed.
This year, Affirmation is continuing its commitment to rebuilding and strengthening in-person LGBTQ+ community engagement throughout Utah through Pride participation, outreach, and volunteer connection.
Why We Show Up
For LGBTQ+ people navigating faith, family, identity, belonging, or transition, seeing affirming community spaces matters.
At Utah Pride, Affirmation seeks to create:
- welcoming and visible LGBTQ+ community presence,
- opportunities for connection and support,
- affirming spaces for LGBTQ+ individuals and families,
- and moments where people know they are not alone.
Our booth and parade presence help create visibility for LGBTQ+ people connected to the Latter-day Saint tradition, including current members, former members, families, friends, and allies.
Every conversation, smile, shared story, and welcoming interaction can make a meaningful difference.
