Welcome to Pride Alliance Hawaii

Aloha!

Welcome to our blog where we hope to share with you the many exciting things relating to our fight for equality. Pride Alliance Hawaii was founded by a group of enthusiastic individuals who have come together to impact the change we need in society today; we pride ourselves for our "can-do" attitude.

Our immediate goal is to see HB444 passed, which will grant all couples regardless of sexual preference the ability to avow their love and commitment for one another. We will strive to achieve this goal through community outreach and education. It is our understanding that the fight will not stop with civil unions and many in our group would like the see the eventual dissolution of DOMA and Don't Ask Don't Tell. Our aim is to achieve equality and social inclusion for all marginalized groups.

We hope to have you join our side as we fight for equality. For more information, please join our Facebook group (http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=107387042274) or e-mail pridealliancehawaii@gmail.com.
