#TransPolicyAgenda
TLC released our policy agenda out of urgent necessity. In 2018 alone, 396 transgender people were murdered, with countless more unreported. Our community faces homelessness, rising HIV/STD rates, healthcare threats, and widespread institutional violence. The system is killing us.
The TransLatin@ Coalition serves the TGI community regardless of race, creed, age, size, immigration status, ability, or other marginalized identities. We demand resources and advocacy to address these systemic injustices. This policy agenda calls for legislative change and demands moral integrity from society as a whole.
The State of Trans Health: TransLatin@s and Their Healthcare Needs
The TransLatin@ Coalition aims to improve healthcare outcomes for Trans people in California. This report highlights the specific healthcare needs of Trans Latin@s in the southern region, providing evidence to guide effective support. While California leads the nation in Trans-inclusive legislation, there's still much needed to address the basic social needs of Trans Latin@s. We hope this report offers a roadmap to ensure Trans Latin@s access the resources they need to live healthy, happy, and fulfilling lives in California.
TransVisible: Transgender Latina Immigrants in US Society
This study highlights the social and legal barriers negatively impacting Trans Latina Immigrants. The data reveals that most of their challenges stem from structural or legislative issues. By sharing these findings, we aim to foster better understanding among key stakeholders. This, in turn, should lead to new attitudes, policies, laws, programs, and behaviors that respect and humanize Trans Latina Immigrants in the United States. These immigrants deserve a dignified life, the very reason they sought a new home here.
