The Department of Health and Human Services through its Administration for Children & Families plans to spend almost $1 million on “transitional living programs” for homeless lesbian, gay, lesbian, transgender and/or questioning (LGBTQ) youth.
“Each year in the United States, an estimated 1.6 million unaccompanied youth between the ages of 12 and 17 experience homelessness, which puts youth at a high risk for health, behavioral, and socioemotional problems compared to the general youth population,” ACF explained in its grant announcement.
“It is estimated that between 20 and 40 percent of all homeless youth identify as LGBTQ,” the grant said. “This is disproportionate to the estimated percentage of LGBTQ youth in the general population, which is between 4 and 10 percent.” Youth that identify as LGBTQ “are more likely to run away or be rejected by their family due to lack of acceptance of their sexual orientation or gender identity/expression,” the grant said. …

Large Gruesome Bitch Trumps Quezequotel?

The best little gay whore house in the US.

When they include Polygamy and Zebras
