“At Kenneth and Jacob’s House, community stories are powerful catalysts for change. We believe that every lived experience carries the potential to inspire hope, drive awareness, and spark action. That is why we are launching a Call for Stories aimed specifically at LGBTQ+ youth navigating the harsh realities of homelessness and housing insecurity.“

Why Your Story Matters
LGBTQ+ youth face a housing crisis that is disproportionate and often hidden. Many experience homelessness due to family rejection, eviction, or unsafe living conditions exacerbated by societal stigma and discrimination. Sharing your personal journey is a courageous step toward meaningful change. Your story can:
- Help prevent others from facing similar struggles.
- Raise critical awareness about the unique housing challenges LGBTQ+ youth endure.
- Offer hope to individuals feeling isolated and invisible.
- Inspire community members to donate, volunteer, and advocate for change.
By lending your voice, you become an essential participant in a collective campaign aiming to shift perceptions, influence policy, and expand support networks for queer youth in crisis.
Who We Want to Hear From
We are inviting stories from a diverse range of experiences including:
- LGBTQ+ youth currently experiencing homelessness or unstable housing.
- Those who have found safety and stability through Kenneth and Jacob’s House.
- Individuals renting privately who face eviction, disrepair, or unaffordable housing.
- Anyone living in temporary or emergency accommodation seeking security.
Your story, no matter the chapter you are in, holds value and power.
