Collective Hope Coalition (CHC) was formed as an initiative of Dallas Hope Charities (DHC) due to the alarming statistics regarding suicide among the LGBTQIA+ community. Through collaboration, focused strategies, unified goals, and successful implementation we are creating positive change.

Dallas Hope Center provides a safe, connected, and welcoming space for our homeless LGBTQIA+ youth. They have the freedom to be authentic and honest, in an environment that encourages growth. Dallas Hope’s Transitional Living Center (TLC) is dual functioning: as stabilization and then to transitional living.

Please note that any volunteer events that require interaction with our residents will require volunteer to be 21+, an approved background check, and a signed confidentiality agreement.

In addition to volunteer opportunities specific to our individual programs and initiatives, we also would love helping accomplishing administrative tasks to continue instilling #HopeForAll.
