Support services are a critical line of support and advocacy that serves the LGBTQ+ and other marginalized communities. The LGBTQ+ community faces disparities in most social support needs- food insecurity, homelessness, substance use, mental health, suicide, and more - as a result of the stigmatization, violence, harassment, and abuse they face. ​While using critical tools like education, awareness, and advocacy can reduce these occurrences, they can never be fully eliminated. We work towards building agreements and partnerships with other Loudoun organizations to provide safe and accepting places to seek help. Just remember, you are not alone. 

​​

**We do our best to ensure each of these resources are accepting and affirming of the LGBTQ+ community. If you have any questions, please contact us.

​

If you are experiencing an emergency, please call 911 immediately.
