LSBN Toronto is lesbian owned and caters to the social and business needs of the lesbian community, in and around the Greater Toronto Area. Its mandate is to provide Toronto area lesbians with information on the diverse groups, events and resources in our community. By doing so we hope that women will be encouraged to come out and attend, participate, volunteer, organize, get involved, and meet other women! Its vision is to celebrate and enjoy the diversity within our community.

Launched during the 1999 Pride Week, LSBN Toronto has received tremendous support from family, friends, and the lesbian community at large. A big thank-you to our visitors, supporters and sponsors who through their efforts, ensure that we fulfill our vision of bringing women together!
