The Beijing LGBT Center, one of China’s leading organizations offering support for the queer population, has announced the end of its operations.
The group, founded in 2008, provided the local gay, lesbian and transgender community with mental health therapy, medical resources and social support.
“We regret to inform you that due to unpreventable circumstances, the Beijing LGBT Center ceases operations today,” the group said in a statement Monday, without giving reasons.
The organization also conducted research and developed networks of experts in an effort to enhance awareness of the challenges faced by gay people.
