Amanda Quinn (They/Them)
Co-Chair of DOP, Events/Social media committee member, Education committee member
Amanda moved to Delaware in 2020. When deciding where to move the decision became easy after seeing Sandusky St. and local businesses decked out for Pride Month and finding out Delaware had a local pride organization and festival. It wasn’t long before they became involved. Representation is very important to them. They are excited to continue to show our local queer community that they are seen and supported.
