Henderson Equality Center will be opening tomorrow, June 8th. The office will be open from 10:00 – 4:00 PM, Saturday from 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM, Sunday we will be closed. During this soft opening of the new office, we will have limited hours while we are organizing and growing into the new space.

Over the last two months staff of the center have been preparing the office to be an amazing addition to the area and safe space for our LGBTQ community and allies. At the time of planning and designing the new office, we never would have thought Covid-19 would have shut the world down. As we know this virus is not fully over, we want to make sure we stay healthy and visitors to the new center are safe while we ahear to state guidelines put in place.

Public health experts tell us that it will take some time for life to return to a sense of normalcy. We cannot stop enjoying life until then. What we can do, is take what we know now about the virus and give people the tools they need to be safe and responsible and create environments designed to curb its spread.

  • Our staff will be cleaning and sanitizing frequently visited areas within the office during the day.
  • We ask and encourage all visitors to the center to wear face coverings, if you do not have a face covering we will have them at the front desk.
