Review for North County LGBTQ Resource Center, Oceanside, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been involved with the NC LGBTQ RC since it's inception as a volunteer. One of the most important things this organization does it that it reaches out to partner with other organizations in the community to benefit the core LGBTQ clients. The Center has worked with the city, police, firefighters, library and various other civic organizations to help make LGBTQ people visible and accessible. They were at the forefront of raising the standing of the City of Oceanside in the Human Rights Equality Index to it's highest level ever achieved. The volunteer board and employees are exemplary in their service to the North County community.

Review for North County LGBTQ Resource Center, Oceanside, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I am so pleased to be associated with this organization that provides a safe and positive environment for the full spectrum of the LGBTQ community. Many interesting programs and services are provided for those of us who live in North San Diego County. I appreciate not having to drive down to SD as much. The other volunteers, directors and service providers are so friendly, helpful and welcoming to anyone who stops by to visit. The location is close to good public transportation, has free parking and is close to Camp Pendleton. I encourage everyone to stop by and say "hello".
