feature request: queer/trans specific resources!
- judah 12y agoThanks for the feedback. We actually implemented this at first: when searching for beds, you could search for beds reserved for transgender and gay kids. Likewise, shelters could mark beds as beds alloted for gay youth or transgender youth. But after talking to the shelters in Minnesota, they told us that they don't have beds specifically for transgenders or gays; if a female identity transgender person is most comfortable with female beds, they give that person a female bed. The shelters told us that creating beds specifically for transgender and gay people would further isolate them. That said, we do show which services are GLBTQ-friendly. For example, see http://ysnmn.org/#/services/2 http://ysnmn.org/#/services/2
