  • About Us

    The DC Center for the LGBT Community, Washington DC

    The DC Center for the LGBT Community works to educate, empower, celebrate, and connect the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender/gender-nonbinary communities in the District. We envision communities where LGBTQ+ people feel healthy, safe, and affirmed.

    To fulfill our mission, we focus on 4 core areas:

    1.    Health and Wellness. This includes our Total Care Team working on HIV prevention and sexual health, and individual and group counseling services.

    2.    Arts & Culture. This includes our Reel Affirmations Film Festival, Center Arts Gallery, and OutWrite Book Festival.

    3.    Social and Peer Support. This includes 15-20 different peer facilitated support and discussion groups that meet at the DC Center.

    4.    Advocacy and Community Building. This includes our Anti-Violence Project, Center Global (our program for LGBTQ asylum seekers and refugees), and our community building work with LGBTQ People of Color.
