What is Center Lane?

Center Lane is Westchester’s only community center for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and questioning youth ages 14-21.

Designed to reduce the isolation that many of these young people feel, the center provides an opportunity for socialization, enhanced self-esteem, personal growth, and a safe space for them to be themselves without fear of harassment.

A service program of Westchester Jewish Community Services (WJCS), Center Lane offers support groups, creative and educational workshops, recreational activities, short-term individual, family and group counseling, and an after-school drop-in center.
