Housing
The YOUr Haven Program, in partnership with Proud Haven, provides safe housing and essential resources to Transgender, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Queer, Intersex, Asexual and HIV+ people. The YOUr Haven program assists residents in their search for long-term housing and teaches essential life skills for sustainable independence in their new living situations. We prioritize candidates ages 18-25. Recently, our program added housing services for up to a year, resulting in a 275% increase in housing capacity.
