Housing & Shelter · Arizona · Free

CLASP research on policies affecting LGBTQ+ homelessness and housing. Useful for trans women of color facing the highest rates of housing instability and violence in shelters. Some programs hold trans-specific beds and units; ask intake about identity-affirming room assignment. Family rejection is the #1 cause of LGBTQ+ youth homelessness — interventions sometimes restore housing if family is willing to work with counselors. All services free of charge to LGBTQ+ Arizona residents and allies.
