Elena Gatti,
Chair, Mid-Cape Local Community Outreach
ElenaGatti@capecodpride.org
Elena has had a home on the Cape for twelve years, and moved here full time this past year. Her attendance at the 2019 Festival inspired her to get more involved. "With the current political climate, I felt that discrimination is flourishing again. It is important that the LGBTQ family bonds together and supports each other. In addition, I feel that there are many who are living reclusive lives here. We are fortunate to live in a beautiful area that offers so much to do. We should be sharing those experiences."
Elena is Vice President for Sales for a food manufacturer. She and her spouse of 27 years enjoy time with their two rescue dogs, as well as boating, golf and photography. Elena looks forward to the opportunity to give back to the community through her involvement in Cape Cod Pride.
