The Wanda Alston Foundation is a non-profit organization based in Washington, D.C., that provides housing and support services to homeless and at-risk LGBTQ youth aged 18 to 24. Since its establishment in 2008, it has been the sole housing program in the city dedicated to offering pre-independent transitional living and comprehensive resources across all eight wards.
With a focus on long-term transitional housing, job readiness, employment, life skills training, educational support, mental health assistance, mentorship, healthcare support, and food and nutritional aid, the foundation aims to create a safe space for LGBTQ youth in need. It also actively addresses the issue of intimate partner violence and collaborates with other organizations in the community to provide resources and support.
