The first LGBTQ+ center has opened its doors in the San Fernando Valley.
The center run by the nonprofit Somos Familia Valle, which opened June 6, offers services and programs to LGBTQ+ Valley residents from underrepresented communities.
“We’ve been advocating for all the resources and we’re finally getting them,” said Somos Familia Valle President Kevin Al Perez, who grew up in the Valley and founded the nonprofit about 10 years ago. “It’s exciting,” he added.
The center at 12411 Sheldon St.
