Summary
The LGBTQ advisory committee reported that State College scored "100 out of a 100 with 15 flex points" on the 2025 Human Rights Campaign municipal index and described continued collaboration with the oversight board and State College Police.
A representative of the borough’s LGBTQ advisory committee reported on the committee’s 2025 Human Rights Campaign municipal index results, saying State College scored "a 100 out of a 100 with 15 flex points." The presenter noted the borough tied with Philadelphia and outperformed Pittsburgh by a small margin.
The presenter said the committee will continue collaboration with the community oversight board, the human relations committee, campus groups and State College Police to maintain progress and address health and equity issues raised by the Pennsylvania health needs assessment. “We scored a 100 out of a 100 with 15 flex points,” the committee representative said, noting community interaction and partnerships remain a focus.
Council members acknowledged the report and encouraged continued engagement; the advisory committee also cited outreach to organizations conducting biannual health-needs assessments as important to tracking disparities in health care access and related social determinants.
