Founded in 1997, Queens Pride House is located in Jackson Heights where the needs for immigrants empowerment and community building is tremendous. This need led the founders of Queens Pride House in July 2006 to create the Diversity Center of Queens, as a collaborative venture to bring together grassroots community organizers, activists and organizations to fight against injustice, discriminations and all forms of violence. Over the past 10 years, QPH has directly impacted the lives of thousands of community members, as well as business & educational institutions, health care institutions, community based organizations, and political and civic leaders. Some of our accomplishments include: •Providing over 3,000 health referrals since 2001 •Heightening our community's awareness about public health issues by distributing over 5,000 pamphlets since 2002 •Involving over 4,000 participants in our educational & social events since 2002 •Organizing the wildly popular Annual Queens Queer Cultural Festival for the past 5 years •Successfully advocating for additional resources for LGBT programs from NYC & NYS elected officials in 2006

Under the leadership of Dr. Ron Daniels, IBW´s vision is rooted in the values of cooperation, community and mutual respect. It is founded on the principles of self-determination, African humanism and social justice. The struggle for social transformation through the creation of new relationships and institutions is central to our task. The objective of our work is to create greater unity among people of African descent, to acquire and maintain power to reconstruct our communities and to build viable and vital nations, inspired by the idea of a new, non-exploitative social order. IBW implements its Mission by engaging highley skilled and committed board members: Board Chairperson Rick Adams, Treasurer Richard Jones, Secretary Mary France-Daniels, Leonard Dunston, Kinaya Sokoya, Jacqui Patterson, Hulbert James, Greg Akili, Kareem A. Aziz, Dr. Leslie Alexander, Mark Batson, Dr. Jeanette Davidson, Folami Harris, Dr. Jemadari Kamara, State Senator Constance Johnson, Dr. Karin Stanford, Michelle Kim Thomas, Sandino Thompson, and Tara J.

The Institute does not necessarily seek to implement projects alone, rather to provide access to information and resources which allow local groups to initiate projects and build linkages with others doing similar work. Strategic partnerships and local support committees will also be vehicles for collaborative implementation of IBW projects and initiatives.
