Sacramento LGBT Community Center - Sacramento, California

I went to farmers market with my granddaughter(pronouns they/them), I was supporting them going into the center and really excited to be a part of this wonderful resource for them. We walked in and the guy signing in my granddaughter, put his arm out and said “this is not a place for you to hang out, this a safe space for youth “. I said I’m with my granddaughter . I turned around and left because I didn’t “as a black woman” feel welcomed at all. Shouldn’t this center be welcoming to all.

Never in my life have I felt more unwelcome. I came here for the adult respite offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The first thing I noticed was that the front door was locked during business hours. That should have been my first clue to leave. The receptionist didn't seem to understand what I meant when I mentioned the Lambda Lounge by name. If you visit this place, be sure to mention adult respite specifically. After being checked in, I availed myself to some water and used the restroom. The same receptionist seemed suspicious of me when I walked in to use the restroom for its intended purpose. Oddly enough, someone else who was there for respite asked me if I worked there, to which I responded in the negative. At this point, I could tell the others in the room needed these services more than I did and that I didn't belong here. Feeling uncomfortable, I took my leave of the place, at which point someone informed me that I might not reenter once I left the building. I wish the LGBT Center's website had mentioned that before I paid for more than an hour of parking. I suppose I'll just tackle my depression on my own and risk hospitalization.

If you need STI testing I would go somewhere else. It took two weeks for me to get results for a test that takes 2 to 5 days to run. I also interviewed for a job here prior to utilizing services and found the center’s leadership to be disingenuous.

I had an amazing experience there. Being a published author and a professional musician, I got to go play classical music for Casey and a client that happened to be there it was an opportunity to share my Christmas poem which will be in my next book. Always a very supportive environment, good timing every single visit!

We were there last Tuesday at 7pm for the NA meeting. The Receptionist was very cold and rude. It seems as if the NA meeting irritates her. She was quite friendly to other people not there for the meeting, but we both didn't feel welcomed. The feeling of this "center" is cold and unwelcoming. It's nothing like the loving feeling of the old location. Too bad.

The Sacramento LGBT Community Center plays a pivotal role in providing essential resources and services, ranging from health programs to advocacy initiatives. Their commitment to addressing the diverse needs of the LGBTQ+ community is evident in the comprehensive and compassionate approach they take.

What truly sets this organization apart is its welcoming and affirming environment. The staff's genuine care and understanding create a space where individuals feel seen, heard, and supported. Participating in their events and workshops has not only expanded my knowledge but has also connected me with a community that values unity and upliftment.

My gratitude for the Sacramento LGBT Community Center knows no bounds, and I wholeheartedly commend this organization to anyone seeking support, education, and a sense of belonging within the LGBTQ+ community.

Front desk person was extremely rude both times I've gone, didn't answer when I asked if she needed my dead name or preffered one, and said we weren't in the system when we've gone through the process of being out in it before. As well as sounding upset when I was confused as to why that was. Overall awful experience both times.
