TYC LGBTQ Youth Club Break-In Update. The Oakland LGBTQ Community Center has multiple service locations. This break-in did not take place at our main service center on Lakeshore. The thieves broke into our Town Youth Club (TYC) site on Santa Clara here in Oakland's new Lakeshore Cultural District. The break-in happened on Wednesday, March 6, during the early morning hours, before our youth club team members arrived. All of our sites have cameras and alarm systems. We do not believe that the break-in was hate crime related. TYC is just another victim of the rampant burglaries plaguing all areas of our city. The major damage was to our front door. We are replacing the door now with a stronger door. If you are interested in donating to our youth services program or specifically to the replacement of our youth club front door, please visit our website www.oaklandlgbtqcenter.org on the home page and at the top of the page, you will see a donate button or you can simply use the link above in our profile. Use the pull-down to select youth services and the comments section on the donation page to specify "for door replacement". We thank our LGBTQ+ community and our allies for being there for our community and helping to keep our youth space as safe as we can during these challenging times.🌈❤️ www.oaklandlgbtqcenter.org
