THE CENTRE will offer a space for visitors and to have meetings. Besides that, it will have a meeting room that can be booked for events, always trying to offer a place where our community feels at home.
THE CENTRE will be the place of origin of our innovative variety of social services and will be home to the operative office of SOMOSGAY where we will plan our tasks of advocacy in public health, educational, cultural policies and recreative programs. This will also work as an incubator to the groups that wish to meet with SOMOSGAY that pretends to contribute with the development and empowerment of the LGBT citizens.
The development model of THE CENTER is based in an adaptation of similar experiences in other countries, incorporating the necessities and particularities of our country. One of the main functions of THE CENTER will be to give the meeting point affordable to organizations, many of which, in other circumstances, will not have where to go.
Among our innovative programs we can mention:
SOMOSGAY YOUTH, will offer services that will focus on the empowerment and training that will help to break with the isolation that many LGBT teenagers suffer because of homophobia. SOMOSGAY YOUTH Seeks to offer the formation and profession development for young workers, teachers, counselors and educators in the administrative field. It will also have a training plan on leadership and development of networks fro students that work in order to end homophobia in their schools.

Besides these, there are also other programs such as WE ARE HEALTH AND LIFE, WE ARE COMMUNICATION AND WE ARE COMMUNICATION MANAGEMENT, already up and running in the structure of the organization.
