With minimal funding, a small Board, and solely volunteer effort, Placer LGBTQ+ Center, (previously known as PRISM-Q LGBT & Allies Resource Center), has worked since its founding in 2013 to:
raise awareness
identify and provide information on resources for the LGBTQ+ community, families, and allies
to change hearts, minds, and policies of local government entities including foster systems,
law enforcement, and educational institutions.
Our main objective is to find a convenient location for the Placer LGBTQ+ Center aka "The Center" to operate. We need your donations to make this a reality. Our goal is to have The Center operational by 2024. The Center will be open to all ages and will have facilities for people to meet, have fun, socialize, feel safe and loved, and find the resources they need to seek appropriate care.
Placer County is in dire need of programs and services for the LGBTQ+ community. A recent study was conducted by the Placer Collaborative Network, spelling this out. Additionally, the annual Placer Mental Health Services Act Report highlights the need for programs and services for this community, underscoring the value of The Center we are creating.
Your kind donations will make a difference in someone's life.
