Are you ready to volunteer? Many of our volunteer positions are still available and we are excited for you to volunteer with us. This year we've added a new position -- accessibility coordinator. This is a unique opportunity to assist folks with disabilities in navigating and experiencing our Parade and Festival. 

We've also launched our Adopt-the-Route program. This is the perfect opportunity to get a front row view of one of the largest parades in the city. For this program all you need is a committed group/organization of folks who are willing to volunteer. You can even select the part of the Parade route that you’d like to staff, as long as you can commit to providing the requested number of volunteers! Interested in adopting a part of the route? Send us a note at volunteer@capitalpride.org for more information. 

It's time to sign up!
