As of August 26th 2024, a federal appeals court has overturned Judge Hickle's ruling against the gender-affirming care ban, permitting Florida to enforce it.
The law reinstated by the court’s decision bans the prescription of puberty blockers and hormone treatments to minors, even if their parents consent.
Additionally, the law mandates that transgender adults can only receive treatment from a doctor and not from a registered nurse or other qualified medical practitioner. Adults who want the treatment must be in the room with the physician when signing the consent form. No matter what happens, community networks have our back.
Trans rights are human rights.
LGBTQIA2S+ Funds
LGBTQ Fertility Fund
LGBTQIA+ family planning
The LGBTQ Fertility Fund, a Black and Queer-led organization founded by Alexis G Williams, is dedicated to alleviating financial disparities for LGBTQ individuals and couples on their journey to expand their families. They support fertility preservation for transgender individuals and cover costs associated with artificial insemination, adoption, surrogacy, and fertility treatments for the LGBTQ community.
Queer Trans Project
Gender-affirming care kits, flights, and more
Cielo Sunsarae founded The Queer Trans Project in Jacksonville, Florida in Spring 2021 as a response to limitations imposed by local queer organizations on LGBTQ+ individuals seeking essential resources. With a vision, a $500 grant, and a 2 bedroom apartment, we established ourselves as an inclusive organization dedicated to addressing dysphoria experienced by trans and gender non-conforming individuals, irrespective of their demographic background.
