BIENESTAR IS BEING DISCRIMINATED AGAINST

It is hard to believe that after 30 years, ignorance, homophobia, transphobia, AIDSphobia and discrimination continue in our community. Yesterday afternoon, after only two days at BIENESTAR’s new location in Van Nuys, we were kicked out and locked out because of the “activities” we conduct and for “bringing disease” to the building.

We would appreciate any information regarding legal services referrals that you could recommend to us. In addition, we welcome any financial contributions to help us move to a new location to continue to offer our services to the community.
