Many moons ago I came here as a troubled youth. Lambert House was a place I could be myself and not worry about judgement. I made friends and was distracted from a tumultuous life. In the end I made poor choices and turned my back on the house that had given me so much. The director, Ken, was a generous man and I pray he is still there guiding the LGBT youth of today. If you are in need of help or support don't hesitate to stop by. You won't regret it.

Last summer I had gone here and it was fun. I plan on coming back on the last day of school and hopefully I wont be as paranoid to talk to people. Thank you guys for making this a safe place ❤️

Edit, 2024: I cannot see this as an actively safe place anymore. After allegedly denying any harassment by other youth I have received, there has been no vetting process into keeping predators out, or attempts to admit theyve had predators at all.

Lambert was an amazing support for me back in 2011-2012, life was rough and lambert house and the staff and founder helped me tremendously and fed the lgbtq youth hosting events. Went through a real rough patch and Ken helped me. I strongly recommend lambert house it helped me in my youth over 8-9 years ago...definitely will never forget the staff and never will forget ken, they were all there for me when I needed someone the most. Its been 8 years now and I'm doing great thanks to the support of the staff and I will always have a place in my heart for all the staff and other teens I met back then. Much love, Zachary Bokurak

Lambert house is an AMAZING and welcoming place for LGBTQ youth. It's one of the place that I credit for helping me find my LGBTQ identity. The staff is always friendly, there's always something new going on, and there's always a warm meal. Every time I've gone, I've always left feeling better.

I will always have the greatest memories of the volunteers and staff, as well as the many friends I grew to know close. I'm now 32, and it takes a village to raise a kid, well a teenager still founts as one, right? Men is the best and I don't know if I'd be stable without him and what I know is I wouldn't be. Lamber house taught me a solicitation of life's greatest offerings need to be given back to the community. As the Baron Saye & Seele, I plan to donate to their home! Maybe decide to host some fun filled events as I Chaparone along side with some famous all stars on any given holliday. Lambert House really did teach me that anything can happen, reality hits... And there ARE places that help out in trameandous ways!!
