There are obviously more needs for the LGBT community than what my simple list of resources is capable of helping with. However a list of needed LGBT resources is extremely important. This list includes resources for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender individuals, as well as those who are questioning. These resources can serve as support for coming out, emotional support, or support for other issues such as religious acceptance and career searches. If you find a resource on this page that you would like more information about, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
