This June Penny Lane Centers is celebrating LGBTQ+ Pride Month! We spoke with 6 different Penny Lane staff and clients from all across the LGBTQ+ spectrum about their coming-out stories, to unfurl the beautiful array of experiences the journey entails. Here's what they had to share...
Thanks to Congressman Tony Cardenas, this past week Penny Lane Centers was awarded $400,000 to assist tenants in our permanent housing project find jobs that do more than provide subsistence level wages. In addition to the $400,000, Abbey Road was awarded $1 million to refurbish a number of apartments currently used for housing for Transition Age Youth (TAY). Click to read more!
