Since 1969 the Los Angeles LGBT Center has cared for, championed, and celebrated LGBT individuals and families in Los Angeles and beyond. Today the Center's nearly 600 employees provide services for more people than any other LGBT organization in the world, offering programs, services and global advocacy that span four broad categories: Health, Social Services and Housing, Culture and Education, Leadership and Advocacy. Our Center Ambassadors help expand the passion for our mission to build a better world where LGBT people can thrive as healthy, equal, and complete members of society. As ambassadors, Center staff members participate by attending and then helping to organize a Get Centered! tour. Besides being a great way to grow our Center family, these tours ensure that awareness about the Center's programs and services expands to all parts of our shared community. Despite our size, scope, and determination to meet the growing demand for our services, the Center remains a lean, fiscally disciplined organization. We have earned a four-star Charity Navigator rating for six consecutive years and have been named the #1 local LGBT non-profit organization by Guidestar. Learn more at lalgbtcenter.org.
