Our Center — Local services in Reno

Wonderful personalities and great experience here! Plenty of resources and people to reach out to if you are feeling alone or need to connect.

This is seriously an important place for those who are LGBTQ+ (Stop rolling your eyes). If you're repeating something you didn't think up of than you might reconsider that these are people. These people have their own dreams and aspirations and real lives. They are someone's kid or perhaps your own in secret. Diminishing their life experience just because you don't see them as equal to you is awful.

Sorry, didn't mean to get political about it. I mean, I'm just a random person online posting whatever. You don't have to even read this or agree with me. But I'm also a veteran who served for 14 years. I at least have some say to allow people to just be themselves. Worry about your own life. Time moves forward and doesn't bother itself with yesterday. Your children come through but don't belong to you. They belong to the mind of tomorrow, which you won't be able to visit (not even in your dreams). You may house their bodies but not their minds, because they have their own minds and their own souls.

Anyway, this place is awesome because it has many resources:

• Writing workshop • Computer lab • Literature • Meeting rooms

Then the local queer friendly businesses. They have their cards. This is a safe space. The people who attend here are a blend from all over town. They're very welcoming and supportive. Why not check out some local wares they sell on site? Please! Do enjoy yourself and meet your peers.

Still an incredible location! So many resources and so much love and support! Honestly, come here and...

I previously had an issue with the lack of inclusion that I experiences during a visit to Our Center. I spoke with the director recently and we talked about the importance of inclusion of all of our diverse community members. I feel like the discussion was productive. I felt that they listened to the problem that I was pointing out and discussed with me how they would attempt to be more inclusive in the future.

Together we are all stronger and better. We must not forget that we will experience problems and be willing to share them in order to make ourselves community stronger than the hate opposition that we experience.

Useless, does nothing for the community. Isn't even familiar with local resources. Never once heard of the center helping any one. More a hang out for teens who are secure and we'll cared for already, even then; I have yet to see any of them around. Altogether lame and a castle for the snooty elder local elite in the local LGBT community. Went there to plead for help and assistance and got TWO cans from their food pantry... The quintessence...
