Our Work

Trans Healthcare Action recognises that our work must span from the individual level, supporting trans people to access the care they need, to the systemic level, advocating for a new trans health system. Our projects advance trans healthcare through coalition-building, community outreach, medical advocacy, and political engagement.

Through these projects, we aim to depathologise and decentralise trans healthcare, equip trans people to self-advocate and access care, reimagine trans health through informed consent and harm reduction models, and push for co-produced policies.
