As a private non-profit organization, TEC relies on individuals, benefit events, corporations, foundations, the faith community, local, state, and federal grants.

Being a non-discriminatory organization, we welcome anyone who identifies themselves as SGL, gay, bisexual and even heterosexual. Many men, not necessarily identifying as gay/lesbian or with mainstream gay/lesbian culture, without TEC, have no safe or affirming space or community within which they can seek and achieve healing, affirmation self- acceptance and fellowship.

TEC strives to meet people where they are at in their life circumstances/situations. We offer a wholesome approach to promote empowerment and self-sufficiency.
