Actually, we did something like this when we lived in Chicago and would take Homeless Gay Youth in off of the streets. We did not even know we were able to adopt back then(and I doubt we were).Now that we have moved, we haven't come across any, though(and ironically we have a huge house now-6 bedrooms for just the two of us)We inquired about the LGBTQ+ homeless shelter in Pittsburgh, but the shot us down and informed us they 'don't go out that far' which is ridiculous as it's youth that are NOT in the system, and are not prisoners. Of course, they get state funding , etc for every bed filled...............it's all about money *sigh*We are certified foster parents, though our annual renewal is coming up and we are so sick to death with dealing with the counties and SWAN I think this might actually be the way to go!
