All transgender people have the right to quality and culturally-sensitive health care close to home. Be an advocate for transgender communities!
Transgender people face multiple barriers to accessing healthcare. The California Transgender Economic Health Survey and national health bodies note significant experiences of perceived provider bias and lack of trans-specific medical knowledge. This results in avoidance by many trans people of routine care and even care for serious conditions. Moreover, trans people overwhelming lack health insurance due to high levels of employment discrimination, under- and unemployment, and discrimination and exclusions by insurance companies.
