The Center's free Case Management program is a comprehensive support service customized to each community member who comes to us for help.

Our case managers work with you to assist and guide LGBTQ+ community members experiencing disparities and life difficulties through complex systems, and access to critical services. Every community member receives their own unique care plan, tailored to their needs.

All services are designed around your success, including establishing individual long-term goals.

Population(s) Served

Many LGBTQ+ individuals experience negative mental health issues due to the prejudice and other biases they face. Research suggests that queer people are at higher risk for depression, anxiety, and addiction or substance abuse.

Without mental health we cannot be healthy. It is our hope that LGBTQ+ individuals find our peer-to-peer support groups to be a safe outlet for them to discuss these challenges and find a sense of community online.

Groups Available: Women in Transition (Transgender Women's Group), Trans Masc Folks Y Mas (Trans Men & Nonbinary Group), Q Connection (Full LGBTQ+ Spectrum Group), Coffee & Connection (LGBTQ+ Adults 50yo+ Group)

Population(s) Served

How we listen

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

Seeking feedback from people served makes programs more responsive and effective. Here’s how this organization is listening.

done We demonstrated a willingness to learn more by reviewing resources about feedback practice.

    We serve the LGBTQ+, HIV, and ally communities of all ages, genders, identity/expression, and socio-economic backgrounds.

    Most recently we received feedback about one of our peer support groups that was not perceived as inclusive. The group caters to transgender men and nonbinary folks felt excluded.

The group has been active for 3 months and has been successful.

Data
  • We review compensation data across the organization (and by staff levels) to identify disparities by race.
  • We ask team members to identify racial disparities in their programs and / or portfolios.
  • We analyze disaggregated data and root causes of race disparities that impact the organization's programs, portfolios, and the populations served.
  • We disaggregate data to adjust programming goals to keep pace with changing needs of the communities we support.
  • We employ non-traditional ways of gathering feedback on programs and trainings, which may include interviews, roundtables, and external reviews with/by community stakeholders.
  • We disaggregate data by demographics, including race, in every policy and program measured.
Policies and processes
  • We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive director/CEO positions within our organization.
  • We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
  • We help senior leadership understand how to be inclusive leaders with learning approaches that emphasize reflection, iteration, and adaptability.
  • We engage everyone, from the board to staff levels of the organization, in race equity work and ensure that individuals understand their roles in creating culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
