Strengthening, Celebrating, Supporting and Connecting since 2005.

Founded by our community and for our community. Here for all of us, through all of our challenges and triumphs.

Our Programs

The Community Center offers a variety of programs, and does so in a variety of formats — in person, hybrid and virtual.
Many are offered at the Community Center. Others are offered at locations throughout the Mid-Hudson Valley. In addition to our programs, we host a variety of special events and gatherings.
Well-Being Services

The Community Center's Well-Being Services are dedicated to providing comprehensive, holistic wellness programming that affirms and uplifts all members of the LGBTQ+ community
The Rainbow Lounge

A relaxed meetup for LGBTQ+ adults 50+ to connect with community peers. In partnership with SAGE, this "hip adulting group" explores topics like aging with grace, mentorship, relationships, and the unique joys and challenges of growing older as LGBTQ+ individuals. Come share your wisdom and experience!
Mankind - the Men's Group

A supportive discussion group for men 18+ to explore masculinity, relationships, spirituality, and personal growth in a thoughtful, uplifting environment. Non-binary and trans men welcome. Share insights on topics ranging from identity and relationships to self-care and life experiences with like-minded peers.
Queer Kinship

A supportive community for parents, caregivers, and grandparents of LGBTQ+ children, plus activities for LGBTQ+ youth and siblings. Join monthly gatherings featuring confidential support groups, one-on-one guidance, community resources, and supervised youth activities. Every family deserves understanding, acceptance, and the tools to thrive together.
