LGBT Center Awareness Day (9.15.09)

Today is LGBT Center Awareness Day, an opportunity to honor and celebrate the difference queer community centers make in our lives. The 2009 theme is “My Community Center Changed My Life” and will focus on the vital role that community centers play in the health, empowerment, and unity of LGBT communities.

Celebrate the day by going to an event at your local LGBT center or share your story about how the center has impacted your life.

Find a center, join a program/club, or donate at the Directory for LGBT centers.
