The LGBTQ Center OC’s mission is to advocate on behalf of the Orange County Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender and Queer/Questioning communities and provide services that ensure its well-being and positive identity. Formerly known as The Gay and Lesbian Community Services Center of Orange County, the LGBTQ Center OC was established as a volunteer organization in 1971 and incorporated in 1975 as a 501(c)(3) non-profit community-based organization. We are one of the oldest gay and lesbian community centers in the United States. The LGBTQ Center OC provides services to more than 10,000 individuals annually across a broad spectrum of cultures, ethnicities, ages, and economic backgrounds. Programming is especially designed for gay men, lesbians, youth, the transgender community, the Spanish-speaking LGBT community, the bisexual community, those who are questioning, and LGBT families. http://lgbtqcenteroc.org/about/
