Trusted Resources
Placer LGBTQ+ Center maintains a curated list of trusted local, regional, and national LGBTQ+ resources. These resources are intended to support mental health, family services, advocacy, education, and community connection, helping individuals find information and assistance that aligns with their needs.
Resources may include community organizations, support services, educational tools, advocacy groups, and referral partners that serve LGBTQ+ people across a wide range of experiences and life stages.
All resources are provided for informational purposes and are reviewed regularly to help ensure accuracy, relevance, and alignment with our values. While the Center does not directly oversee external organizations, we strive to share resources that are affirming, respectful, and supportive.
If you are unsure where to start or need help navigating available options, the Center is here to help point you in the right direction.
