Covenant House International

Mark and Marcelle met at Covenant House 11 years ago. They're still best friends.

On the surface, they couldn't have been more different. Marcelle is bold and expressive. Mark is steady and quiet.

But in each other, they found safety and acceptance in a world that is not always safe for LGBTQ+ youth. For over a decade, they've shown up for each other, checked in often, and challenged one another when life gets heavy. They are proof that love doesn't always arrive with labels.

Their story reflects what Pride Month is truly about: visibility, acceptance, and connection. It reflects what Covenant House strives to offer every young person who walks through our doors — a place to be seen, supported, and free to be who they are.

Jalen can do it all. Even off the court he's a champion, supporting young people overcoming homelessness at Covenant House shelters.

Go Knicks!

Our sites in Atlanta, Toronto, Vancouver, and New Jersey have stepped up to be partners in local anti-trafficking efforts as the World Cup comes to North America.

Covenant House provides safety, trauma-informed care, and a path to healing for survivors of trafficking. From dedicated mental health support to basic needs like food, shelter, and clothing, our teams give survivors the relentless support they need to thrive.

And we are proud that Covenant House is a place where they can find safety.

High school and college students across the country are graduating this spring.

Many are navigating homelessness at the same time.

People like Rhonda are there to help youth at Covenant House make it across the graduation stage, providing support, guidance, and the reassuring knowledge that they're not in it alone. Congratulations to every graduate who has gone through adversity to make it to this huge milestone.

Elijah came to Covenant House New Jersey after a winter sleeping in his car. Now, at age 24, he is a college graduate and is already working on his Master's degree.

The youth in our shelters have just as much potential and drive as anyone graduating college this spring. They just need the chance to show it.
