National Recommended Best Practices for Serving LGBT Homeless Youth

Lambda Legal collaborated with the National Alliance to End Homelessness, the National Network for Youth, and the National Center for Lesbian Rights to co-author a policy brief that provides a brief overview of homelessness among LBGT youth and makes recommendations that provide direction to agencies and not-for-profit organizations to increase their competency in working with LGBT homeless youth. The recommendations include specific guidance on improving practice, organizational culture, and residential services to better serve LGBT youth.
