In light of the “Don’t Say Gay” bill passing in Florida and now Texasβ Governor Abbottβs absurd wish to witch hunt the families of transgender youth in his state, extra help and resources are extremely needed. Seeking out gender-affirming medical for one’s child or self should never be considered a crime. My heart just aches thinking of all the LGBTQ+ community struggling right now, so I thought it was probably of higher importance to get this list up.
Some may be great resources for those not even in Texas. Trans, rainbow alphabet, or ally, let’s protect one another.

Praying you don’t need this, but it’s here if you do. Let’s protect trans youth and those wonderful families that have been doing all the correct medical support. And thank you, Dallas prosecutor, John Creuzot for taking a stand against Abbott and his version of the law.
Remember, now more than ever it’s important to be a visible ally for trans youth. Check #IllGoWithYou for ideas. Or my LGBTQIAP+ tab, with more ally and transgender topics.
