Our milestone program is the Emergency Shelter Assistance (ESA) which addresses an ongoing issue in the Middle Eastern-LGBTQ community. According to the Kaiser family report, about 40% of homeless youth are LGBT. The leading reason for homelessness among this group are due to family rejection. 100% of our ESA recipients claim the reason for needing this grant is family rejection.
