We continue to be the driving force on GLBT issues and our Center is allied community. In response to community need, Stonewall routinely adds programs to our growing roster, facilitates ever-increasing numbers visiting the Center, increases visibility for other agencies, and brings new and innovative perspectives to our service delivery. It is our intent to continually expand programming so that community members seeking a variety of services and activities - in addition to the base services and ongoing support groups we offer safe, comfortable and culturally enriching environment. As the leading organization on GLBT 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. As we celebrate 31 years in the community, we are building on past accomplishments, developing sustainable systems and growth processes and focusing on strengthening not only our agency, but the Central Ohio GLBT and allied community by enhancing our Community Center.

In 2005, Stonewall Columbus purchased two buildings in the Short North in order in central Ohio. In April of 2007, the community center was named the Center on High. The main building at 1160 North conference room that seats 15-20 people. Upstairs is a smaller conference room that an 800 square foot multipurpose room, named Studio One. The adjacent building to the Center on High resides behind the main building at 14 E. 4th Avenue. This historic warehouse space will be an extension of our center in years to come as our programs and services continue to grow. The Center on High has been transformed to an active place buzzing with activity. It is home to a variety of organizations and large array of programs with an estimated 10,000 visitors a year. The intake and referral desk is staffed by volunteers and serves 3600 callers a year. Our websites have become a virtual community center, receiving hundreds of hits a day and attracts visitors from all over the country.
