CLOTHING CLOSET
The clothing closet here at the DC Center is a FREE resource for community members to use. Clothes of all sizes are included! From professional wear, coats, shoes, to bras etc. All is available for you to take home. Anyone who wishes to take any clothing home may do so with no appointment necessary. We do not offer fitting rooms.

BINDER DONATION PROJECT
The DC Center is excited to continue their partnership with GC2B Transitional Apparel! GC2B has reached out to many organizations in the DC area and provided free binders for them to give away, and the DC Center is fortunate enough to be one of them.  This program is ending soon though so get your Binders soon. Everyone and anyone is welcome to come by the DC Center at any point during regular office hours (12-6 pm Monday through Friday and 11-3PM on Saturday) and get fitted for a free binder! Sizes range from XS to 5X depending on what we have available. We have received 50+ binders from GC2B! If your size is unfortunately not available you can order one directly from GC2B. This is a no-gatekeeping event. Whoever you are, whatever you look like, whatever you need your binder for, come by the DC Center and pick up what you need for FREE! please visit the GC2B website here and support them by buying their merch if you can or spreading the word.

FOOD PANTRY
Please stop by our Free Food Pantry. With the ongoing food shortages and struggles with Covid if you’re in need please pick up some food from the DC Center Free Food Pantry. We have all kinds of food ranging from green beans, tuna, corn, soups, pastas, to cereals and more. All of our food have expiration dates clearly marked. Don’t go hungry this winter. We have 2 cabinets full just like the one in this picture. We’re here to help everyone in our LGBTQ family. All are welcome!
