Introducing our first-ever PRIDE Giving Day!

On June 27, Give with PRIDE: 24 hours of generosity to uplift and celebrate our LGBTQ+ community, while recognizing the challenges they face.

At our core, we are an inclusive, affirming, and safe space — a place where women and gender expansive folks are valued, supported, and embraced, regardless of gender identity or sexual orientation.

“The staff is lovely. We need people to tell us ‘you can do it’ to tell us we’re worth it and give us support.” This quote from Daniela, a trans woman and TGP member, is an example of how important a safe and inclusive space truly is. Our services are vital for those we serve, but it’s the way we deliver our services and support that people remember most.

But the need is real. LGBTQ+ individuals are at a disproportionate risk across housing, shelter, mental health, and financial stability.

Did you know?

17% of LGBQ adults have experienced homelessness in their lifetime—over 2x the general adult rate
In the past year, 8% of transgender adults reported recent homelessness, compared to 1% of cisgender heterosexual adults.
LGBTQ+ individuals are about 15% more likely to live in poverty than cisgender heterosexual adults

That’s why our work providing essential resources, housing-focused case management, and holistic wellness services is so essential. We offer a foundation of acceptance and belonging in an intentionally safe, supportive, and empowering space.

Our community of transgender, non-binary, gender fluid, agender, and all gender diverse neighbors deserve to celebrate who they are and live their life.

If you believe in PRIDE, please show your support this Friday, June 27 and invite your friends and family to join this day of giving--we can't do it without you!
