DBQ PRIDE. Established in 2024, DBQ Pride had the goal of encouraging meaningful community building for local LGBTQ+ individuals through events and gatherings. Founders included Danny Sprank, member of the Dubuque City Council, Chuck Harris, and Sara Eliot Steuer, member of the [[MULTICULTURAL FAMILY CENTER]] who helped plan the annual MFC Pride Festival and month.

The new nonprofit wished to stem a trend for older LGBTQ+ people to move to larger communities because of a lack of connection here. DBQ PRIDE would be a partner with the MFC for the annual festival, but would host other events to ensure a safe and welcoming environment for LGBTQ+ persons.
