The Cause
Crystal Meth use is an epidemic which affects thousands of men and women in Los Angeles. An estimated 6000 gay youth are living in the streets of LA most of which are engaged in Crystal Meth use. The Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Center (LAGLC) offers an array of services for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) youth, who represent a disproportionate percentage of the homeless youth on the streets of L.A. today. More than 1,000 young people turn to the Center for help each year.
Facts and figures about the LAGLC programs:

Addiction Recovery
The Center's Crystal Meth Recovery Services program offers counseling and support groups for meth users.
Many LGBT youth on the streets—many rejected by their families—turn to meth so they can stay awake at night. The Center offers meth groups specifically for the young homeless people who turn to the Center for help.
The Center’s Addiction Recovery Services program is an evening outpatient program for people fighting an addiction to meth, alcohol or other drugs. It is an accessible outpatient treatment program that makes it possible for people to get treatment without interfering with jobs or other daytime obligations.
A probability survey conducted by well-known researchers Cathy Rebak, Steven Shoptaw and Christine Grella, reported that approximately 11% of gay men in Los Angeles used meth in the previous six months. L.A. County’s 2006 study found that those individuals who use crystal meth are five times more likely to be HIV-positive than those who were not users.
