In the solemn embrace of this Transgender Day of Remembrance, The TransLatin@ Coalition bows its head in honor of our departed community members. Their stories, struggles, and triumphs echo through time, serving as a poignant reminder of the fragility and strength within the transgender, gender nonconforming, and intersex community.

The TransLatin@ Coalition is thrilled to announce the release of the comprehensive study, "From Surviving to Thriving: A Quality of Life Study with Transgender, Gender Nonconforming, and Intersex (TGI) Adults in the City of Los Angeles." This groundbreaking research was a collaborative effort between The TransLatin@ Coalition and the prestigious Williams Institute at UCLA Los Angeles.

In a historic moment for the Transgender, Gender Diverse, and Intersex (TGI) community, The TransLatin@ Coalition is overjoyed to celebrate the recent passage and signing of two groundbreaking bills, AB 1487 and AB 1163, by California Governor Gavin Newsom. These vital pieces of legislation, sponsored by the California Transgender, Gender Diverse, and Intersex Policy Alliance (CTPA) Health and Human Services Network, represent a significant step forward in the fight for equality and dignity.

The TransLatin@ Coalition as a founding member of the California Transgender, Gender Diverse, and Intersex Policy Alliance (CTPA), a leading advocate for the specific and often overlooked issues that transgender, gender-nonconforming, and intersex (TGI) individuals face, expresses its vehement condemnation of Governor Newson's lack of support for our TGI community. Despite California's reputation for promoting freedom and equality, and passing many pro “LGBTQ” bills, we demand that the Governor stops leaving the TGI community last. 

The TransLatin@ Coalition (TLC) and the Department of Chicana(o)/Latina(o) Studies (CLS) at Cal State Los Angeles collaborated on addressing the impact of COVID-19 in the TGI community in Los Angeles County.
