That kind of care is life changing.
What made the biggest difference was who the support came from. Being helped by an organization led by and centered on Black trans people changed everything. I didn’t have to explain myself. I didn’t have to shrink who I was. I was understood without having to translate my pain.

At Thrive House, I wasn’t treated like a problem to be fixed. I was treated like a person worth investing in. Someone with a future. Someone whose life mattered. That belief shown through action, not just words helped me begin to rebuild myself piece by piece.

Thrive House wasn’t just a roof over my head. It was warmth. It was rest. It was the first time in a long time that I didn’t have to stay alert every second, wondering if I was safe. Having a bed, food, and a secure place to exist gave me something I hadn’t had in a while: the space to
