MenTo Kings

Meet Lorenzo.

Renzo joined BAC in September. While he is new to agency, he has served the community for 15 years, 9 of which focuses on community health.

Renzo graduated from the Northern Virginia Community College with his Associate Degree in Applied Science. He started his career as a Certified Dental Technician servicing low-income and unprivileged communities who did not qualify for Medicaid or Medicare. In that position, he worked alongside dentists and hygienists to deliver free dental care to communities like the one he grew up in. This experience inspired him to explore other needs of his community through positions of a football coach, youth counselor, and working at a re-entry program.

At BAC, Renzo is responsible for linking individuals to treatment and prevention resources that fit their specific needs. They include access to care, regiment adherence, PrEP, HIV testing & healthy s*xual education. Whatever resources you may need, including mental health, harm reduction, support groups, he will be sure to link you in or point you I the right direction.

Renzo is passionate about serving the community. He thrives from the energy of the community, which is why community and street outreach events are his favorites. He believes person-to-person interactions help individuals to know that “their needs are important.”

Renzo is also a facilitator for the MEN TO KINGS program, which is a safe/brave space for black and brown men – mahogany brothers (in Renzo’s term), from all walks of life. They can be the young brother on his journey of self-discovery, or the brother coming home from incarnation in need of help in his re-entry process, or the woke brother who sees a need for change and wants to make a positive impact in the lives of others. MEN TO KINGS takes pride in promoting unity in diversity! It holds space for men of color building bonds regardless of their education level, social and economic background, health status, who he chooses to love or how he identifies. It is a place for the mahogany brothers to speak their truth.

We are starting a new session on November 2nd. Stay tuned for more detail!

Glenn Burke (1952-1995) is the first openly gay Major League Baseball (MLB) player, who played for the Los Angeles Dodgers and Oakland Athletics in the 1970's. He was the first to publicly acknowledge his s*xual orientation during his professional career, stating, "They can't ever say now that a gay man can't play in the majors, because I'm a gay man, and I made it."

In August 2013, Burke became one of the first class of inductees into the National Gay and Le***an Sports Hall of Fame, and in 2015 Burke would go on to be inducted into the Baseball Reliquary's Shrine of the Eternals.

What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived, but what difference we have made to the lives of others. We .bac believe in making a difference in the lives of our community. Inbox if there are any resources you may need. We are here for you.

Black History Month is a time for us to reflect on the strides that have been made over time for justice and equality. But looking back is only part of the story; in many ways, Black History its still being written.

The Civil Rights Movement of the 1960’s brought major progress. Today’s movement reminds us that the fight for justice and equality does not exist in a vacuum. It calls for everyone to stand up, whatever that means, in the name of equity.

We here at Bridging Access to Care stand in solidarity with the community, united we stand under our colorful rainbow.
