Urban Institute LGBTQ+ Research

Housing & Shelter · North Carolina · Free

Research on LGBTQ+ housing, employment, and social needs. Worth contacting for sober-living houses that explicitly welcome LGBTQ+ residents. 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. All services free of charge to LGBTQ+ North Carolina residents and allies.
