The Bisexual Resource Center was founded in 1985 by a group of bi activists after a regional conference. First named the East Coast Bisexual Network, it became a 501(c)3 in 1989 and was renamed in the mid-90s. The BRC is the oldest national bi organization in the U.S. that advocates for bisexual visibility and raises awareness about bisexuality throughout the LGBT and straight communities.
The Bisexual Resource Center envisions a world where love is celebrated, regardless of sexual orientation or gender expression. Because bisexuals today are still misunderstood, marginalized and discriminated against, the BRC is committed to providing support to the bisexual community and raising public awareness about bisexuality and bisexual people.

2015 was the second year of the Bisexual Health Awareness Month and it's been a jam-packed month of
social media sharing. Just because March is over doesn't mean our health concerns
disappear. You can continue to use the BHAM website all year round
for links to important information. Check for updates and info about next year's focus. Thanks to

BLiSS meetings are an opportunity for those who are, or think they might be, bisexual or attracted to people of more than one sex or gender, to discuss a wide range of issues related to attraction and sexuality in a supportive mixed-gender environment. BLiSS is a peer-facilitated drop-in support group on the 1st Wednesday of the month, 7-9 pm, at the Boston Living Center, 29 Stanhope St, Boston. |
In February, Kate Brown became the first out bisexual to become a U.S. governor when she was appointed the Governor of Oregon after her predecessor resigned. The bi community has been following Gov. Brown's career for years, “There are so few bi political leaders out there, so we pay attention to them,” BRC board member Ellyn Ruthstrom commented. The community wishes her well in her new job! |
