The Trans Health Card was created as a community-informed and researched response to the underserved frequency and severity of transphobic barriers and microaggressions in medical settings, including deadnaming, misgendering, and identity erasure.
This resource encourages folks to proactively communicate gender-related health information with their healthcare provider. In doing so, we anticipate folks will gain an increased sense of control, autonomy, and safety when accessing healthcare and reduce the number of trans and non-binary folks with unmet healthcare needs.
