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. Domestic violence shelters increasingly accept LGBTQ+ survivors, including trans women — ask before assuming you're not welcome. Free, confidential, and open to anyone in the LGBTQ+ community.
