Dolores Street Community Services

Jazzie's Place 

Dignity • Resilience • Solidarity

For 40 years, Dolores Street Community Services has been fighting for and alongside those disproportionately impacted by centuries of misogyny, racism, and systemic discrimination. 

Jazzie’s Place is a unique shelter model that serves the LGBTQ community in the Mission District of San Francisco. It is a space to celebrate LGBTQ people who face housing insecurity.

Jazzie's Place recognizes that LGBTQ people disproportionately face discrimination and other obstacles throughout the housing process. 

Jazzie’s Place is deeply committed to providing guests with a safe and affirming experience regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity.

Jazzie Collins (September 24, 1958 – July 11, 2013) was an African American trans woman activist and community organizer for transgender rights, disability rights, and economic equality in San Francisco.  Her activism spanned a decade and a wide variety of community organizations, boards, and initiatives focusing on fighting for the rights of minority communities. 

Today, DSCS needs you more than ever. 

Your support is vital to ensuring we get the resources necessary to continue nurturing individual wellness and collective power among Queer, low-income, immigrant, and all marginalized communities to create a more just society.
