Mazzoni Center has been the primary comprehensive LGBTQ+ health and wellness center in Philadelphia since 1979.
Mazzoni Center’s Mission: To provide quality comprehensive health and wellness services in an LGBTQ-focused environment, while preserving the dignity and improving the quality of life of the individuals we serve.
Mazzoni Center today is the largest health and wellness center serving the Philadelphia LGBTQ community (and Philadelphia’s largest LGBTQ nonprofit of any kind). Services today include primary medical care; HIV and STI testing and prevention; affirming care; behavioral health services; youth services; LGBTQ+ competency training for businesses; and a food bank for those in need in our community. For many, Mazzoni Center is the only place they feel safe coming for care. Many of these individuals would have gone unserved if Mazzoni Center had not existed. We believe all people deserve access to high-quality, affirming health care in an environment where they feel respected and their needs are understood, with a staff that represents many in the LGBTQ+ community.
