This month we celebrate and honor our LGBTQ+ community! Blanchet House of Hospitality is a safe and supportive place where everyone is welcome and encouraged to be their authentic self.

Our meal and housing services are available to all but we know members of the LGBTQ+ community are at higher risk of needing them because of discrimination and abuse. We are here for you and as our mission says we treat everyone with the dignity and respect they deserve.
