As we recognize Pride Month, we want to reaffirm a value that has always guided our mission: every person deserves dignity, respect, compassion, and support.
At The Refuge, we serve individuals and families experiencing homelessness and housing instability from all walks of life. Our services are available to everyone, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, age, disability, or background.
We also recognize that Pride Month may be viewed differently by members of our community. Some hold traditional or biblical beliefs, while others celebrate Pride as an important expression of identity and inclusion. We respect the diverse perspectives that exist throughout our community.
What unites us is our commitment to serving people in need. Regardless of personal beliefs, backgrounds, or identities, every person who comes to us deserves to be treated with kindness, respect, and dignity.
As an organization serving our community in 2026, we understand that our community is diverse and continually evolving. Our responsibility is not to choose who deserves help it is to ensure that help is available to everyone who needs it.
We are proud to represent and serve all members of our community. Together, we can build a stronger, more compassionate future where every person feels valued, respected, and supported.
Happy Pride Month from The Refuge Board of Directors. 🏳️🌈❤️
