Dallas Wants to Spend $6 Million on Housing Homeless LGBTQ Youth
Regina Levine, chief program officer at local nonprofit The Promise House, said they used to have a federally funded place with beds specifically for homeless LGBTQ individuals. But eventually, the house lost its funding. Now, they only have four beds dedicated to homeless LGBTQ youths.They especially get calls from people who have recently aged out of care at facilities meant to serve homeless children.
The city is looking to fund a place like that. In a posting on its procurement portal, the city of Dallas said it wants to throw $6 million into a real estate development project aimed to provide housing for homeless LGBTQ youth between 18 and 24 years old. “So now we just need the city to allocate about $4 million to building a shelter for our LGBTQ homeless, a place where they can be safe and have resources to get them back on their feet and out of the homeless cycle,” then-City Council member Adam Medrano said. “And that’s why I’m committed to making sure the city of Dallas [puts] our money where our mouth is. We want to do this.
