Another peaceful, warm, festive night at Trinity Place Shelter...we pause to wish you a Merry Christmas/Feliz Navidad/Happy Holidays! This holiday season, we give profound thanks to our hard-working staff, all of our board members, volunteers, donors, friends and supporters around the globe that have made Trinity Place not only a shelter but a home for 300+ homeless LGBTQ youth/young adults, over the past 7.5 years or 2,737 nights. For it is because of you...that we are...
