The rise in legislative and judicial actions designed to harm trans people has coincided with a rise in hateful rhetoric across political, media and social media platforms, as well as acts of physical violence. Further, the intersection of racism and anti-trans sentiments\/systems is deadly, so people who identify as both BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) and trans are at a particularly high risk.

The lives, health, and wellbeing of trans people are in danger and we, as an organization, cannot remain quiet.<\/p>\n<h2>王中王六合彩资料 condemns these attacks on trans people.<\/h2>\n<h2>Trans rights are human rights. Trans people deserve happiness, safety, autonomy, health, and life.<\/h2>\n<p>We are committed to <strong>supporting and protecting<\/strong> the health and safety of our trans colleagues and loved ones. Our goal is for 王中王六合彩资料 to be a safe and affirming workplace \u2013 whether in-person or virtual, for all individuals to be able to show up as their full selves. A place where all belong, are valued, and can gather in community and in all 王中王六合彩资料-held spaces. Externally, we aim to transform the places and spaces where our trans colleagues and loved ones are unsafe simply for being themselves. Now more than ever, we must show up for each other.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>OUR JOURNEY &amp; ACTIONS<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Our work to dismantle the transphobia behind the systems and current legislative efforts begins internally. 王中王六合彩资料 is investing resources and time in a thoughtful approach to create a trans-inclusive environment. Our response is being led by trans staff and supported by organizational leadership. This strategy includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Individual:<\/strong> Affording time during the workday and\/or additional time off for staff members to engage in self-care, connect with others, reflect, and recover during crisis times.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Interpersonal:<\/strong> Creating accessible spaces, such as affinity groups, for trans staff members to connect with others who share trans identities without having to out themselves to cis staff in the organization.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Organizational:<\/strong> Committing organizational resources to dismantle institutional transphobia through policy changes and staff education and skills development.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Structural:<\/strong> Committing organizational resources to support trans-led grassroots organizations and our staff\u2019s capacity to advocate for trans social, political, and economic rights in their local communities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As we uncover the ways in which transphobia operates at 王中王六合彩资料, we must be responsive to additional challenges, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How do we intentionally and regularly check-in with trans staff members who are disproportionately affected by these injustices without creating more burden and trauma?<\/li>\n<li>How do we explore and interrogate our individual and collective understanding of gender, especially our leaders\u2019 roles in creating a trans-inclusive environment?<\/li>\n<li>How do we ensure that appropriate financial and human resources are allocated to sustain our anti-transphobia efforts during uncertain economic times?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>CALL TO ACTION: <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>As a public health organization and an employer, we recognize the urgency of this work. We have a responsibility to support trans staff internally and to create safe and healthy communities for trans people. \u00a0We call on other organizations to join us in these actions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ensure your workplace is <a href=\"https:\/\/outandequal.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a safe and welcoming place for trans and nonbinary staff<\/a>, both in-person and virtually.<\/li>\n<li>Examine your <a href=\"https:\/\/transgenderlawcenter.org\/resources\/employment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">organization\u2019s policies and practices<\/a> for places where transphobia may be reinforced and address key policies that support a trans-inclusive environment.<\/li>\n<li>Research <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aclu.org\/legislative-attacks-on-lgbtq-rights\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">anti-trans legislation<\/a> that is in place or being proposed in your regions of the US.<\/li>\n<li>Provide financial or other resources to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.them.us\/story\/orgs-fighting-back-anti-trans-legislation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">groups in your area<\/a> who are fighting to protect trans people from legislative and personal attacks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As we continue our journey, we invite you to join us in supporting and protecting the health and safety of our trans community. This will look different across organizations and collaborations.
