After 13 years of leading the Pride Center San Antonio, Robert Salcido will step down as executive director at the end of the month, he said in a statement posted on the organization’s website.
In the statement, posted May 20, Salcido said the Pride Center, which works to empower San Antonio’s LGBTQ+ community, has become a beacon of hope by providing resources to support individuals and their families while advocating for a more inclusive city.
“Together, we have worked tirelessly to build a foundation that supports our community in ways we never thought possible,” he said. "Lex was Pride Center’s very first paid staff member and has been an instrumental leader in the Center’s growth to include our mental health services," Salcido said."We are currently in a transition phase for the next few weeks as we get Lex ready to step fully into the role and we will be sharing updates about this process as they become available."
"I would love the opportunity to give as many hugs to you all as we celebrate the incredible work of the Pride Center," Salcido said."Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this incredible journey."
