    in person crisis support

    While we are not yet mobilizing our neighborhood safety teams, TLGBQIA+ neighbors who’d like to offer in person crisis support for mental health emergencies, instances of interpersonal violence, or other types of emergencies can attend our crisis response trainings and sign up to join a future neighborhood safety team to begin connecting with neighbors in need of support.

    post-crisis care

    Neighbors can join our extended care network to ensure that people in crisis stay connected to care after stabilization, to prevent crises from recurring. Post-crisis care can look like rides to appointments, help with groceries or errands, childcare, petcare, and virtual peer support in the form of phone or text support to TLGBQIA+ neighbors in need of a listening ear.

    referral network

    Service providers supporting Baltimore’s TLGBQIA+ community can join our referral network to connect their clients to our community of care and be connected with people in need of care post-crisis. Our referral network includes licensed practitioners, bodyworkers, herbalists, and others committed to providing affirming care to queer and trans folks.
