JOSHUA HOME AN LGBTQ SAFE HAVEN

    • Mission

    Joshua Home: An LGBTQ Safe Haven is a volunteer-run, community-based organization committed to providing safe, affirming, and gender-inclusive housing and support services for LGBTQ+ youth experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity. Our mission is to create spaces where all youth feel safe, valued, and empowered to achieve their full potential, free from discrimination and barriers. Through community-driven initiatives, advocacy, and outreach, Joshua Home strives to transform lives and inspire hope for the future. The CENTER @ Joshua Home is a welcoming drop-in space for LGBTQIA2S+ youth and young adults to access clothing, shoes, hygiene items, programs, resources, and opportunities for connection. Joshua Home is committed to convening, connecting, and collaborating for a healthier, more inclusive Inland Empire.

    About Us

    Joshua Home: An LGBTQ Safe Haven is leading the way in advocating for residential care for LGBTQ+ youth who are caught in systems that leave them unaccompanied, homeless, or navigating the streets in San Bernardino and Riverside Counties. Many of these young people have been isolated by their families and communities, and experienced various forms of abuse and discrimination. Unfortunately, the majority of youth shelters in Southern California are ill-equipped to handle the specific challenges that LGBTQ+ youth face when they are homeless and alone. Currently there are no permanent homes in the Inland Empire or surrounding areas that are designed to cater to the unique needs of these vulnerable young people either.

    Our vision at Joshua Home is to ensure that every LGBTQ+ youth has a place to call home, where they can receive the acceptance, guidance, and love they need to embrace and love themselves.

    We're dedicated to creating a safe and supportive environment that fosters acceptance, empowerment, stability, and inspiration. Our staff and partners help to advocate for permanent gender-inclusive housing solutions and provide supportive services and programs that are designed to help LGBTQ+ youth thrive.
