The LGBT Liaison for the City of Somerville acts as the emissary between the Mayor’s Office and the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender communities of Somerville. The Office provides information, referral services, guidance, coordination, and technical assistance to the City and its residents on initiatives intended to serve the LGBT community. The LGBT Liaison also works to eliminate prejudice and discrimination based on sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression in the City of Somerville.
