The Philadelphia Gay News

The Philadelphia Gay News is the largest weekly newspaper on the East Coast targeting the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community, and the most award-winning and oldest LGBT publication in the country. Started in 1975, we strive to focus on and promote businesses and populations within our community to engender mutual success. This includes publishing special issues to highlight areas such as pets, health, travel, legal and entertainment, as well as addressing community concerns such as LGBT elder issues, homelessness and endangered youth. As a community newspaper, PGN's mission is to be a platform for the LGBT community to communicate with each other and share their viewpoints, as well as establish common interests and priorities with the mainstream/ally community. We promote our community internally and externally. To that end, PGN reaches out to and builds reciprocal, mutually supportive relationships with its readers and supporters. We strive to enhance the flow of information about community resources and to educate the non-LGBT community about our past, present and future. As a prominent minority group, the LGBT community needs communication tools to share concerns, assemble platforms, build support and celebrate successes. It is this sense of purpose that guides PGN on a daily basis.
