Review for Los Angeles LGBT Center, Los Angeles, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

My family has been participating in the Family Day in th Park, Rainbow Family Camp, Gay Pride Parade march with Family Services and Neighborhood Family Days for the past six years. Before that, my partner and I attended the Maybe Baby meetings to learn about how we could create our family. I hadn't realized what an integral part of our lives this organization has been! I value the connection that this organization has helped us to maintain to the gay & lesbian community. Our kids have made relationships with the dedicated staff who have been there for years. Our family feels valued by these people with a level of understanding that is hard to come by in the mainly heterosexual community in which we live. Not only do they provide a community in which we belong, but they motivate us to get involved, and stay involved. We are truly lucky to have the Family Services Program as a part of our family! Thank you!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

the way that the services keep expanding over the years, providing more and more opportunities for GLBT families to receive support, education and social connection.

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

be rewarded daily knowing that the families I serve are so grateful.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

the relationships we ahve formed with the staff, and the connection that our kids have made with the staff over the years.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

awesome. Dedicated. Happy. Smart. Kind. Endlessly energetic.

Ways to make it better...

I had participated more and volunteered more.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

funding?
