The Thrive House was founded by Sarah Pope and Maxine Tory aims to provide a safe, trauma-informed environment who have experienced homelessness as Sarah herself, emphasizes the need for a dedicated space where trans individuals can access temporary housing, meals, healthcare, and emergency support services. The shelter is designed to be a sanctuary where individuals can find not only physical safety but also the resources necessary for long-term stability and well-being.
Sarah Pope's vision for Thrive House Safety is rooted in her personal experiences and a deep commitment to making a tangible difference. She explains, “So many people have talked about building a safe space and the lack of housing for black and Bbown trans women, but nobody has actually tried to make an effort to change this. I didn’t want to keep talking about it. Let’s actually do something about it.”
This place allows me to truly be myself without any constraints.
This space holds a deep sense of sacredness for me and my sisters, allowing us to strengthen our bond and inspire one another.
This is a place I can always rely on. It’s a welcoming space where black and brown trans femmes can find solace, nourishment, and camaraderie.
Thrive House is the sanctuary where I truly thrive.
Thrive House opened their doors when I was homeless
There is no other shelter safe for trans women this is why Thrive House is so important
