A directory of 80 organizations and services that serve the needs of NYC’s LGBTQIA+ community amid national threats to basic rights
New York City Comptroller Mark Levine has published his 2026 LGBTQIA+ Guide, an up-to-date directory of 80 organizations and services designed to address the needs of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, and Asexual individuals in the city. The Comptroller released the updated resource while hosting a celebratory Pride Breakfast yesterday morning. The guide reflects the Office’s ongoing commitment to supporting LGBTQIA+ communities across the city, providing access to essential services and inclusive spaces for all.
“As the LGBTQIA+ community faces growing threats, especially our trans brothers and sisters, it is imperative New York City remains dedicated to ensuring access to essential services, affirming healthcare, legal protections, and inclusive spaces for all,” said Comptroller Levine. “This Pride Month, I am proud to introduce the 2026 Edition of the LGBTQIA+ Resource Guide, reaffirming my office’s commitment of support to these communities across the city. I encourage everyone to share it with colleagues, friends, family members, and neighbors.”
The latest installment of the annual LGBTQIA+ Guide includes organizations providing lifesaving support, advocating for justice, and creating spaces where people can live openly and authentically. Their work strengthens our city and embodies the values of equity, inclusion, and community care and the Comptroller’s Office is proud to support and amplify their efforts.
This Pride Month also comes as attacks on LGBTQIA+ rights, particularly the rights of transgender and nonbinary people, continue to shape the national landscape. Efforts to restrict access to gender-affirming care, limit protections for transgender youth, censor LGBTQIA+ voices in schools and public institutions, and undermine anti-discrimination safeguards have created uncertainty and fear for many members of our community.
As the birthplace of the modern LGBTQIA+ rights movement and home to one of the largest such populations in the world, New York City has a responsibility to defend the dignity, safety, and humanity of all LGBTQIA+ New Yorkers and reject efforts to marginalize or erase any member of our community.
