Message from the Chair
Tonight The Center will host it's first public event since moving to Northern Colorado to support our LBGT community. I hope everybody on our team will support this vital community organizing by attending this event or supporting The Center in the future. The divisive and irresponsible actions that some members of the Colorado House demonstrated in the last legislative session were a tragic example of why we need to build a better house. Please support The Center and equal protection under the law.
We are currently looking for old iPod Touches. If you have one that isn't rocking your world anymore, we would love the chance to put it back to work. Please write [email protected]  or call the office at 689-6391 to help. Please include your favorite t-shirt size with your contact info so that we can reward your socially responsible recycling. 
--William Russell  
"We are confronted primarily with a moral issue, whether all Americans
are to be afforded equal we want to be treated."
 
--John Fitzgerald Kennedy
