Following the passage and implementation of HB1080 a law that prohibits access to medically necessary healthcare for transgender youth in South Dakota, community advocates are coming together for a virtual event focused on helping families navigate the landscape of gender-affirming care while feeling supported and uplifted by their communities.
Please join us Monday, December 16 from 6:00-7:00pm CDT for this special event. The event is being hosted by Transformation Project, Black Hills Equality, Quilting Allies, Brookings Pride, Equality South Dakota, and the Campaign for Southern Equality.
At the event, we will be discussing resources available, including patient navigation support, referrals to out-of-state gender-affirming care, and $500 emergency grants for families of transgender youth. Additionally, community partners will share about the resources available through their organizations. And there will be plenty of time for questions. By providing your e-mail address, you may receive occasional email updates from Transformation Project and the Campaign for Southern Equality.
Need immediate support? If you need help finding out-of-state providers of gender-affirming care or funding for travel, mental health expenses, or whatever you need, please get in touch here.
