In 1996, the association was renamed as the Consolidated Association of Pride Inc., to better reflect its membership that includes LGBTQ+ Pride coordinators in Arizona, California, Hawaii, New Mexico, Nevada, Texas, Utah and the country of Mexico. The Consolidated Association of Pride (CAPI) was formed in 1987 in San Jose, California by five founding Pride organizations Long Beach, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose and Christopher Street West, as the California Association of Pride, Inc. Long Beach Lesbian and Gay Pride is proud to announce that one of its founders, Bob Crow, was selected as the 2018 Consolidated Association of Pride (CAPI) Person of the Year Award in Austin, Texas.
