❤️🖤💚 Happy Juneteenth!

Today, we honor the historic day when the last enslaved African Americans learned they were free and celebrate the resilience, contributions, and leadership of Black communities.

As Juneteenth and Pride Month intersect, we recognize and uplift Black LGBTQ+ people and recommit ourselves to the work of equity, justice, and collective liberation.

🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️✨ Today, we came together to demonstrate the power of care at The Center’s 2026 LGBTQ+ Luminaries Lunch.

San Diego’s LGBTQ+ community and our allies have held the light for our community because when those who oppose us attempt to rewrite history and erase our spaces, what remains is our refusal to let that flame go out.

💜 Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped bring that story to life. Together, we hold the light for our community.

✨🌈 Welcome to the 2026 LGBTQ+ Luminaries Lunch!
In this moment, caring for one another is a transformative, world-changing act.

Today, we gather to demonstrate the power of care and celebrate the people and partners who embody what that looks like. This year’s honorees represent the fierce, necessary truth that our community survives because of our insistence that we are worth the fight and worth the celebration.

Thank You to Gensler For Hosting a Fundraiser for The Center!

Last week, The Center team joined Gensler and San Diego Pride for a special happy hour networking mixer and fundraiser at Gensler’s downtown San Diego offices in support of The Center.

Hosted by Gensler’s Employee Resource Group, the event kicked off their national annual conference taking place in San Diego this year, with The Center proudly selected as the sole beneficiary. We were honored to be part of an evening centered on connection, community, and support for LGBTQ+ organizations.

We’re incredibly grateful to the Gensler team for their generosity and commitment to making a positive impact, and we look forward to continuing to work together to advance our shared mission.

🕯️❤️ Today, our community gathered in love, remembrance, and unity for a Community Ofrenda marking the 10th anniversary of the Pulse Nightclub massacre.

Together with our partners at San Diego Pride and the LGBTQ Latine Coalition, we honored the 49 lives taken and all those impacted by this tragedy. Through reflection, stories, and collective healing, we created a sacred space to remember, uplift, and reaffirm our commitment to a future where our LGBTQ+ communities can live with dignity, safety, and pride.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in holding space and keeping the memories of those we lost alive.
Special thanks to TijuanaQueerCoral for the beautiful songs of resilience.
