OKC Pride Parade 2026

We are ecstatic to have you join us, as we walk in the annual Oklahoma City Pride Parade on Sunday, June 28th. As you probably know, the work of the ACLU is now more critical than ever, and we want this year's parade group to be the biggest yet!

Please complete the following registration form and we will be in contact with further details.

The first 80 people to register are guaranteed to receive a free limited-edition ACLU of Oklahoma t-shirt. We do not have a max on how many people can walk with us, but we cannot guarantee t-shirts will be available.

**Please submit one registration entry for every person (children too) that will be walking with us, so that we can have an accurate count for t-shirts and water.**

If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to Carly Heitland at cheitland@acluok.org.

Job Opening: Executive Director

Update: ACLU Executive Director Position search has been extended until May 20th.

POSITION ANNOUNCEMENT: AMERICAN CIVIL LIBERTIES UNION OF OKLAHOMA

The American Civil Liberties Union of Oklahoma (ACLU-OK), a statewide non-profit organization which promotes and defends civil liberties, is seeking an Executive Director to direct the diverse and challenging activities of the organization. ACLU-OK is one of 53 affiliates nationwide with a national office headquartered in New York City.

Our attractive Spanish-style office is located in the historic Paseo neighborhood of Oklahoma City, the state’s capital. The office is owned by the affiliate, is on a public bus route, and is within easy driving distance of the Capitol building.

The ACLU-OK consists of two separate corporate entities—a lobbying body and a foundation, each with its own board of directors – which share the same overall mission, office space, and employees.

Additional information on the ACLU-OK can be found at https://www.acluok.org/

The ACLU-OK is an equal opportunity employer. Minorities, women, people with disabilities and GLBT persons are encouraged to apply.
