Welcome to
The San Diego LGBT Community Center
The San Diego LGBT Community Center enhances and sustains the health & well-being of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer, transgender, nonbinary, immigrant, and HIV communities to the betterment of our entire San Diego region.
Our Impact
Building Safety, Stability, and Belonging for LGBTQ+ Communities
Each year, The Center supports tens of thousands of LGBTQ+ people across the region with housing, health, mental health, and community-based services. Our work centers those most impacted by system inequities–LGBTQ+ youth, transgender and nonbinary people, immigrants, people living with HIV, seniors, and LGBTQ+ people of color–and focuses on long-term stability.
We deliver evidence-informed culturally responsive services that help individuals move from crisis to stability, and from isolation to connection.
