Canadian Lesbian & Gay Archives

This place has been one of the best experiences for me. I was here for my EarlyON placement, and I learned so much. All the staff — including Sharn, Nina, Jerry, and Mayumi — are truly amazing. They are caring, supportive, and highly professional in everything they do. I would absolutely recommend this centre to families. If you’re looking for a place that is safe, welcoming, and professional, this is the right place

it was so very nice and Good to be there and been a member thanks

Been to one of their coming out community groups. Was very helpful. Appreciate their services.

A difficult place to rate - it has a troubled reputation and Barbara Hall park is not a welcoming space - solution I’ve no idea. It’s a community space for the LGBT area, offers a safe space for people struggling with homelessness and substance issues - plus a facility for groups and events for the community. Is it perfect - no - is it needed - 100% - hopefully with community input and understanding it will only improve and continue to be a space for the community

This is a place of experience and skills of all kinds learned something great every day

My go to drop in centre when I am in need of a reprieve from the elements. The front desk staff can be in bit of jerks if you don't follow the rules, but those are easy and simple requirements. My favourite spot to catch my breath. People like Keith and Jordan make it worth the trip

Love this place!! Currently renovating the front lobby for a fuller more interactive immersion with Staff and our Community in mind, please be patient.

My only experience with the 519 to date is the 2SLGBTQ+ yoga class run by Barb. Absolutely stellar! So welcoming and inclusive. She tailors to all skill levels and abilities. Bravo!!

Whent to the queer market today and it was lovely, had some friendly conversations with the stall owners and got 2 very cute things! Lovely event.
