Health & Wellness

Welcome to the PrideFest digital Health & Wellness directory

While we’re saddened by not gathering for Wisconsin’s largest LGBTQ community celebration this year, we know putting our community’s overall health and wellbeing FIRST is the most important thing. 

PrideFest’s Health & Wellness area serves as a platform to introduce festival goers to local and statewide resources that support living a healthy and supported life. From support groups to STD health and education to mental & physical health care providers to social clubs, this space engages tens of thousands of people a year. 

We’re proud to take this very important element of the festival experience and turn it digital. By doing so, not only will EVERYONE have free access, but, you can now visit the directory of service providers all year round – not just one weekend. Our goal is to continually increase awareness around community partners that serve LGBTQ people while increasing accessibility. 

Thank you for visiting our digital Health & Wellness area.
