Mayor Eric Adams announced $6.7 million in investments for the LGBTQ+ community at Destination Tomorrow in the Bronx.
Other investments include $3 million for runaway homeless youths, $1 million into legal services for the LGBTQ+ community in hate crimes and $400,000 in HIV and health services.
"Normally we have to go into Manhattan for any LGBTQ+ news," said Sean Ebony, Destination Tomorrow. "It's nice to know that this administration recognizes the outer borough also has a thriving LGBTQ community."
