our mission
The Madison County LGBTQIA Network began a Pride Project in 2021 providing Pride flags for local businesses around the county and creating a map of participating businesses, to increase visibility and connect LGBTQIA people in our county with supportive businesses and organizations. Each year, we have expanded our Pride Project to include more Madison County businesses and organizations, and we have even created Items with our logo to be dispersed at participating locations.
