Family Promise — Affirming Shelter

Housing & Shelter · Oregon · Free

Network of family shelter programs across the US, many LGBTQ+ welcoming. Relevant for couples and chosen families needing housing where they won't be separated or harassed. Most stays in emergency shelter are 30–90 days while you work with case management on next steps. Family rejection is the #1 cause of LGBTQ+ youth homelessness — interventions sometimes restore housing if family is willing to work with counselors. Free, confidential, and open to anyone in the LGBTQ+ community.
