The Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA) is proud to be part of the International Coalition of Sites of Conscience—places that connect past struggles to today’s movements for human rights and social justice. This includes honoring the vibrant and resilient history of LGBTQ+ communities in and around the San Francisco Bay Area.

From sites of protest and pride to ongoing advocacy, LGBTQ+ stories are woven into the landscape of the GGNRA. Today, this legacy continues through public programs, ally events, and community-driven initiatives that celebrate queer resilience and create space for history in the making.
