About
The Diversity Center was founded in 1989 as the Santa Cruz Lesbian and Gay Community Center to advance the causes and priorities of the lesbian and gay community in Santa Cruz County. The center has grown in scope, budget, and staff, and now serves the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning [LGBTQ] community of Santa Cruz County. Since our merger in 2008 with Triangle Speakers, we are now the chief agency in the county promoting social justice, enhancing the health and well-being, and building a sense of community for LGBTQ people. Our staff members work with the nearly 200 volunteers to produce our community programs. We operate a welcoming community center with a lending library, cyber center and many other resources. We are also a fiscal sponsor for several LGBTQ groups, giving them the benefits and protections of our non-profit status.
