Sometimes, family is the one you build yourself 💔 An overwhelming 90% of youth accessing homeless shelters and resources report difficulties at home such as fighting, abuse or neglect, parental substance use, and domestic violence. And of course for our unhoused LGBTQ+ youth, rejection plays a major role in their housing instability as well. Most of our youth come to us having never experienced a loving home, and their time with our staff and volunteers may be the first time they experience something close to familial care. This is why it's so important that we prioritize creating a warm and welcoming environment in our drop in center and youth home. #lgbtqyouth #youthhomelessness #givingback #makeadifference #atlanta

Every act of kindness counts ❤️ One of the best ways you can make a direct impact for our unhoused LGBTQ+ youth is through our meal train program. Prepare a meal that can be individually packaged, like a stir fry, pasta, casserole, and more, and pick a day and time to serve it! A warm, home made meal shows love and solidarity to our youth going through a rough season of life. Visit the link below to sign up for the meal train! https://loom.ly/65GGQRo #mealtrain #helpinghand #givingback #atlantanonprofit #lgbtqyouth
