Growing up lesbian, gay, bisexual or trans is a difficult time for anyone. All you see around you is people's prejudice and countless negative images. There are few positive role models, no one you can turn to for advice and no one you know who really understands. Loneliness and depression are all too common.

For some young people, life is even more difficult. They come out, or their parents find out they are gay, and now they are homeless or living in an abusive or hostile environment. Often they have been totally rejected by both their families and friends.

AKT aims to ensure that all lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans young people are able to live in accepting, supportive and caring homes, by providing a range of services to meet the individual needs of those who would otherwise be homeless or living in a hostile environment by:

- Providing appropriate homes through supported lodgings, fostering and other specialist housing schemes.
- Enabling young people to manage independent living successfully.
- Improving attitudes within society towards lesbian, gay and bisexual young people
