Safe & affirming resources.
A growing local guide to LGBTQ+ owned and affirming businesses, professional services, health care, and community support.
A directory built by the people who use it.
Finding a provider or business where you can be yourself should not depend on word of mouth alone. Oskaloosa Pride is gathering local recommendations in one clear, public place.
Listings may include LGBTQ+ owned businesses, LGBTQ+ professionals, and allies who serve Mahaska County with care and respect.
The directory is growing.
We are collecting and reviewing recommendations now. New listings will be added as information is confirmed.
What belongs here.
The directory will make it easier to find practical support for everyday life—not just Pride-specific services.

Community & support

No blanket guarantee
People should confirm services, credentials, insurance, accessibility, and current policies directly.
