How to Join Lambert House Programs
We require a New Youth Orientation before participating in-person or online. Our programs are open to LGBTQ+ & allied youth ages 10-22 (we require parent/guardian permission for youth 12 and younger). You can now complete the Orientation in-person or online!
Online Orientation Steps:
Contact us at OnlineGroups@LambertHouse.org with questions and to sign up!
We will send you a link to our Online Intake Form. This includes collecting demographic information, so younger youth may need help with this. The form also covers our House Rules and asks the youth to agree to them, so this should be done by, or in collaboration with, the youth joining our programs. They are responsible for knowing and following our rules.
If you, or the youth you are reaching out on behalf of, is 10, 11, or 12 years old, then we will send you a link for our Parent/Guardian Consent Form as well, which must be completed by a parent or legal guardian.
Next, staff will schedule a 10-15 minute video meeting with you (the youth) to welcome you to Lambert House, answer any questions you may have, and verify your age/identity.
Parents are welcome to attend these video meetings to ask questions as well.
If you visit our Drop-In Center after completing an Online Orientation, we will give you a tour at the beginning of your first in-person visit.
In-Person Orientation Steps:
Come to Lambert House during Drop-In hours (Monday through Friday, 4-9:30pm; check our calendar for holiday and break closures). No appointment necessary.
We will welcome you to Lambert House, and explain what Lambert House is.
Next, we’ll ask you to complete our Intake Form on paper.
Then, we’ll ask you to read our House Rules, and to ask any questions about them if you have any. You must agree to follow our House Rules as part of participating in Lambert House programs.
Finally, we’ll go over our programs with you, and give you a tour of the building. This can include introducing you to other youth at Lambert House if you would like.
Parents are welcome to attend Orientation with their child if dropping off; we require all adults (23 and older) to sign a confidentiality policy prior to going past the Reception area.
Looking for resources? Visit our LGBTQ Youth Resources and Mental Health Resources pages. We are also happy to work directly with youth during their Orientation to navigate options and find what might work best for them.
