Identity House

Identity House is a New York nonprofit that offers peer counseling, support groups and referrals to LGBTQ-affirming therapists. It is staffed largely by trained volunteers and has served the city's queer community for decades. Typical topics include coming out, relationships, family, isolation and gender identity. Our address data only gives the Murray Hill area, so check the website or call before turning up; services are generally by appointment or scheduled group times rather than walk-in. For a traveller in crisis this is a referral point rather than an emergency service, so use 911 or the 988 crisis line for urgent help.
