About Lion House KC
Lion House provides housing alongside supportive services, all catered to the unique experiences and needs of the LGBTQ+ community, including culturally tailored case management, affirming in-house mental health services, basic needs provision, weekly life skills workshops, vetted third party referrals, community building, and employment and volunteer opportunities.
​
Our housing program offers a hand-up approach to serving LGBTQ+ individuals to move from unstable housing, unhoused or street homelessness to maintaining their own stable and sustainable housing.

Transitional Housing
Transitional housing is a short term housing program that is designed to best support specific segments of the homeless population, including working homeless people who are earning too little money to afford long-term housing. Transitional housing is set up to transition residents into permanent, affordable housing over the course of a 12 month period of time.
Rapid Re-housing
Rapid Re-housing is designed to serve those who could reasonably be approved for a lease, but are financially unable to afford the cost of living; Rapid Re-housing programs assist with those expenses.
