Mission Statement

The mission of the Phoenix Center is to support Central Illinois’ LGBT Community with programming for promoting equality, health & well being, and social and educational growth.

About This Cause

The Phoenix Center began in 2001 as a group of LGBTQ teens getting together to support each other. This support group has grown exponentially since then while staying true to how we started and all services are offered to the community free of charge. We offer several LGBTQ-focused support groups, as well as social and educational programming for central IL about the LGBTQ community. We have also expanded our services to include transitional housing and case management for HIV-positive individuals as well as transitional and permanent housing for LGBTQ folks. We also offer public health services that reduce the spread of communicable diseases. These services include HIV, Hep C and STI testing, providing active drug users with clean, safe supplies, and connection to other public health services.
