Letter from Executive Director

Welcome To Our 31st Edition! Dear Friends of Stonewall, Welcome to the 2015 – 2016 annual edition of the Stonewall Columbus Lavender Listings – your indispensable “little black book”! The Lavender Listings is an important publication in the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community of Central Ohio and Stonewall Columbus is proud to present one of the most useful resources for the community. This year marks the 31st year for Lavender Listings and our printed publication has grown from a 24-page booklet of 50 advertisers to the current book with hundreds of businesses and organizations listed. The Lavender Listings serves as a model for many other cities and Columbus remains one of the few cities to produce its own LGBTQ & Allies business directory. Don’t forget our online directory! The Lavender Listings website at www. lavenderlistings.com continues to increase in popularity since its introduction in 2007. The Stonewall websites currently receive over 213,000 unique visitors and we are committed to steadily increasing our presence each year. Successful businesses make great cities and your support of Lavender Listings reinforces the fact that Columbus, Ohio is one of the best cities to work, play, shop and raise our LGBTQ families.

To all of our Lavender Listings Advertisers, THANK YOU!

By advertising in Lavender Listings you let the LGBTQ community know that you welcome their business and look forward to counting them among your loyal patrons. Additionally, your advertising dollars enable the Center on High to offer many services and programs to LGBTQ citizens: the telephone referral hotline, coming out support, free counseling, mature adult programs, veteran’s support group, Trans support and social groups, educational seminars, grief and loss support, meeting spaces, the Annual Pride Festival and March, Health and Wellness programming, Social programs and so much more. We value each of you and wish you a most successful year through your advertising in our publications!

To our LGBTQ & Ally Community, Please Support the Businesses and Organizations that Support You!

The Lavender Listings book and website are for YOU! You are the reason this resource exists. Your support of these advertisers enables the Lavender Listings to grow each year and, in turn, allows Stonewall Columbus to continue to add programs, services and events for the benefit our entire community. You can have an impact! Let these businesses know that you found them in the Lavender Listings and that you value their support. We hope you find this book to be a valuable reference and thank you for your continued commitment to our community! Lavender Listings is THE resource for the LGBTQ community. Use the book and visit the website often. Refer others to these listings. And be sure to let them know that Stonewall Columbus sent you!

About Stonewall Columbus

About Stonewall Columbus Stonewall Columbus' mission is to foster the growth of strong, healthy and happy LGBTQ citizens within a broader Columbus community committed to the ideal that all people deserve to prosper and be free from hate. Founded in 1981, Stonewall Columbus has been a dynamic presence in the central Ohio community for 34 years, fighting for equality, fairness and safety for the entire gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community. Stonewall Columbus operates the only LGBTQ community center in central Ohio and serves the LGBTQ community by providing education, outreach, professional counseling, crisis intervention, referral programs and services that enhance the well-being and visibility of our diverse community through discovery, affirmation and celebration. Our community center also serves as a meeting place for more than 50 LGBTQ and Ally organizations throughout the city of Columbus including support groups, human rights advocacy groups, straight ally task forces, theater and arts organizations, public service organizations, athletic groups, LGBTQ health and HIV-positive support groups. Stonewall Columbus is a fully inclusive community center that reaches all ages, income levels, minorities and religions in the LGBTQ community. Stonewall Columbus plans, organizes and manages the annual LGBTQ Columbus Pride Festival in June. This is the largest Pride Festival in the Midwest attracting hundreds of thousands of participants from throughout the nation.

We strive to continually expand programming so that community members seeking a variety of services and activities â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in addition to the base services and ongoing support groups we offer â&#x20AC;&#x201C; can find ways to connect with others in a safe, comfortable and culturally enriching environment. As the leading organization on LGBTQ issues in the Central Ohio area, we have made countless strides in educating the larger community, increasing social awareness, and collaborating on political advocacy by providing stronger programs, services, and alternative social activities. We are building on past accomplishments, developing sustainable systems and growth processes and focusing on strengthening not only our agency, but the Central Ohio LGBTQ and allied community by enhancing our community center. Stonewall Columbus exists because of our strong partnerships with other agencies, our tireless supporters, and the many volunteers and community members that generously give of their time, talents, and support. Through compassionate and intelligent planning, resource prioritization, and increased service delivery, Stonewall has consistently succeeded in reaching greater numbers of the LGBTQ and allied community in Central Ohio.

Youth

TRANS SOCIAL GROUP & TRANS THERAPY GROUP Our Trans Social Group is a safe space for transgender identiďŹ ed individuals (transgender, genderqueer, gender non-conforming, intersex, gender ďŹ&#x201A;uid, and gender questioning) to build community with peers through monthly social outings. Stonewall also facilitates a Trans Theraputic Group which explores topics related to identity, transitioning, coming out, transphobia, relationships, mental health, and other relevant issues to the community. The therapy group is run by licensed mental health professionals. In addition to these services, Stonewall currently has two on-site licensed counselors who provide extensive therapy to trans youth, families, and other members of the trans community.
