Trinity Haven
Share a story
Trinity Haven will be a safe, welcoming, and family-like environment for LGBTQ youth who do not have homes of their own. The goal of Trinity Haven is to intervene before youth experience chronic homelessness, and to help them pursue their education and develop the skills to thrive in the world independently.
Volunteer opportunities
Right now, our most immediate need is recruiting volunteers for our Host Homes Program. What are Host Homes? Host homes are a short-term housing intervention for LGBTQ youth/young adults ages 16-24 experiencing housing instability. The goal of host homes is for community volunteers (like you!) to open their homes and hearts to provide a safe, temporary, welcoming space for approximately six months where the young person has time to repair their relationships with family (when possible) or make decisions about permanent housing options with the support of our Youth Engagement Specialist.
We also need respite hosts – folks who can’t commit to ~6 months but could open their homes for up to a week, providing respite for the traditional hosts who may need a break (family emergencies arise, etc.).
Our Host Homes Program is not be possible without the caring hearts of the community and willingness to step up to the challenge of intervening homelessness when it starts. So – are you interested? Watch this video to hear about the experience of two of our wonderful hosts, Sara and Travis.
