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

Rating: 4 stars  

I am a member of LINC (Lesbians in North County) and we meet at the LGBTQ Center once a month. I also go to GALAs and fund raisers for the Center and all of these events are lots of fun. But when I came out 35 years ago, there weren't any Centers that I was aware of, I didn't know Ellen DeGeneres is gay, I didn't know anyone who was gay and the church I went to said I was going to heck. (to keep it clean). Now that I have met lots of other wonderful people who fit into the diversity of our Center, I feel better about myself and comfortable talking about myself to others. I want the Center to be there for others who are coming out or who have questions. I've met many people who haven't "come out" as either gay or transgendered until later in life. They need the support of the Center and of the wonderful people who work and volunteer there. Max is incredible; it's hard to imagine how he gets everything done. Linda J is another incredible resource at the Center. And the board keeps the Center going and makes sure everything that needs to get done gets done. I am so thankful every day for all of the wonderful people I have met through the Center. Thank you to all of you who work so hard to make our lives easier!

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

clone Max and make 5 of him.
