Support That Starts With Us.
At A Haven for Us, support is more than a service — it’s something we create together.
We offer free, peer-led support groups where LGBTQIA+ individuals can connect, share lived experiences, and build lasting community in a safe, affirming space.
​
We also plan to offer microgrants for gender-affirming care and relocation or housing needs through a simple application process in the near future.
​
You don’t need to prove anything to be here. Just show up as you are.
For Us All
Whether you're looking for a new book club, financial assistance for healthcare or housing, or other helping hands, there's something for everyone!
