| FORM 990 PART III STATEMENT OF PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS | LINE 1 Since its inception, THE LOS ANGELES LGBT CENTER (the Center) has been building the health, enriching the lives and advocating for the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people. It was founded as an all-volunteer organization, offering shelter/support for homeless LGBT youth, counseling and a safe space for LGBT people to gather. Today the Center is OVER AN $87 million organization with NEARLY 600 employees and approximately 1,500 active volunteers serving the community at a rate of more than 42,000 client visits per month. Our wide array of services include: free or low cost HIV/AIDS and primary healthcare and medications for those most in need; housing, food, clothing and support for homeless LGBT youth; low-cost counseling and addiction-recovery services; essential services for LGBT seniors and parents; legal services; health education and HIV prevention programs; cultural arts programs; and more. |
| Form 990 Part III lines 4a - 4d Other Program Services | 4A) The Center is one of the nations largest and most experienced providers of LGBT health and mental health care. Were also one of the few Federally Qualified Health Centers in the nation specifically for LGBT people. Our medical providers specialize in caring for lesbian and gay people, bisexual men and women, and transgender men and women. We also offer HIV/AIDS specialty care and free HIV/AIDS testing and prevention programs, counseling services, domestic violence services, a clinical research program and a full-service pharmacy. For the uninsured, virtually all our services are low-cost or free. 4B) Children, Youth & Family Services: The Center is a vital social safety net for the LGBT community and a safe, welcoming place where individuals can find help, as well as hope, when they most need it. Homeless LGBT youth turn to us for meals, clothing, counseling, medical care and a wide range of services, including a safe home for a night or for up to 18 months. And we help all LGBT youth reach their full potential through one-on-one mentoring, scholarships, a charter high school, the worlds largest free conference for LGBT Youth (Models of Pride) and much more. 4C) Policy & Community Building Programs: We fight to advance civil rights and freedoms for LGBT people domestically and internationally through education, advocacy and community organizing. We also advocate locally and nationally for policies and funding streams that advance the health and wellness of our diverse community. Because we have unique expertise to strengthen the global LGBT movement, we operate a mentoring program thats developing a new generation of leaders in strategic domestic and international community. Were also leading efforts to help end anti-LGBT bigotry on school campuses throughout the country and even the thought of suicide among LGBT students. And were revolutionizing the care and treatment of LGBT youth in the foster system to help them not only feel safe and loved, but to develop lasting family connections. 4D-1) Public Affairs: We promote LGBT visibility and HIV/AIDS awareness in the media, manage all of the Centers external communications, including: e-newsletters, website, quarterly Vanguard newsletter, annual report, social media, etc. and create all graphics and marketing/promotional collateral. 4D-2) Cultural Arts & Education: In our galleries, and on our stages, we produce award-winning performances and host exhibitions that reflect and celebrate the lives and experiences of LGBT people. Were just as proud to showcase the work of emerging artists and performers as we are to entertain audiences with shows by celebrities like Kathy Griffin, Alec Mapa, Coco Peru and others. 4D-3) Legal Services: we Provide free or low-cost legal services through an evening legal clinic, referrals to LGBT-welcoming attorneys and assistance with preparing legal documents. We also help low-income transgender people develop the skills and resources to find employment and match them with trans-friendly employers, many of which have benefited from our transgender sensitivity trainings. Staff also provides free and low-cost advocacy and support for victims of domestic violence and anti-LGBT hate crimes as well as immigration and asylum support. 4D-4) Senior Services: Our fast-growing Senior Services Department helps meet many of the life-sustaining needs of LGBT people over the age of 50, including food and case management, while providing a wide array of life- and health-enriching programs/activities that help end the isolation so many experience. We also operate Triangle Square, the world's first-and the nation's largest-affordable housing development for LGBT seniors. |

| Form 990 Part VI Section b policies Line 11B | The Chief Financial Officer, Controller and Chief Executive Officer respond to questions presented by the accountants. Once a draft of the Form 990 is completed by the accountants, this draft is reviewed by the Chief Financial Officer, Controller and Chief Executive Officer. The draft is also PROVIDED TO the Co-Chairs of the Board of Directors and the Treasurer of the Board of Directors. The final Form 990 is provided to the entire board of directors. |
| Form 990 Part VI Section B Policies Line 12c | CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY THE CENTER consistently monitors and enforces compliance with this policy by requiring that all board members and key employees review the Conflict of Interest Policy and complete a Disclosure Questionnaire within 60 days of assuming their positions and annually thereafter no later than March 1st. In addition, board members and key employees are advised that, subsequent to the completion of their Disclosure Questionnaire, should they or their affiliated persons develop relationships that might present a conflict of interest, they must immediately disclose such relationships by updating their Questionnaires. Board members and key employees are reminded of this requirement in September of each year. Moreover, advance disclosure is required of any and all interests which the board member or key employee or his/her affiliated persons may have in any matters pending before the Center and the disclosing party shall not participate in any decisions on such matters. Records are kept of all disclosures and, after exercising due diligence, express determinations are made as to whether any actual conflicts of interest exist. If it is determined that a conflict does exist, appropriate action is taken. |
| Form 990 Part VI Section B Policies Lines 15a and b | PROCESS FOR DETERMINING COMPENSATION The Chief Executive Officer's compensation package was negotiated by an independent compensation committee authorized by the board of directors and comprised of the Co-Chairs of the board. This committee reviewed miscellaneous data regarding the compensation packages of CEO's at comparable organizations, to include a compensation survey conducted expressly for this purpose as well as pre-existing compensation studies and surveys and the Form 990's of other organizations. An independent compensation consultant also was engaged. Ultimately, the terms of the compensation package were approved by the board of directors. An employment contract was signed by the Co-Chairs and the CEO. When the Chief Financial Officer position was being filled DURING FY 2015, an independent compensation committee comprised of the CEO, Chief of Staff and Chief Administrative Officer reviewed miscellaneous data regarding the salaries of CFO's at comparable organizations, to include a compensation survey conducted expressly for this purpose as well as pre-existing compensation studies and surveys and the Form 990's of other organizations. Advice was sought from independent experts in salaries paid to nonprofit CFOs. Prospective salary ranges were discussed with the board Co-Chairs and the Finance Committee and the final salary was disclosed to the board of directors in executive session and approved. For other key employees, similar but less extensive processes were followed, often involving the Director of Human Resources and excluding board approval and without contemporaneous substantiation of the deliberation and decision. |
