As a long standing fixture of Baltimore’s sexual and gender minority community, the Center consistently makes an effort to maintain relevance with our ever evolving culture and society. In February of 2019, the Board of Directors voted once more to change the name of the Center from the GLCCB to The PRIDE Center of Maryland. The most recent name change is a direct commitment to our mission of being a catalyst for uniting and empowering sexual and gender minorities in Baltimore and Central Maryland, and advocating for a better quality of life for the entire community.
