A 2023 Trevor Project survey of young people found:

• 1 in 3 reported their mental health was poor ?most of the time? or ?always? due to anti-LGBTQ+ policies.
• 2 in 3 reported that whenever new state or local laws were proposed, it made their mental health a lot worse.

Trans young people who get the healthcare they need are 60% less likely to experience depression, 73% less likely to experience suicidality, and 5x more likely to report high self-esteem. They're also 4.5x more likely to describe their mental health as ?Very Good? or ?Excellent.? (Source: American Medical Association)

Proceeds from your purchase fund:

• Free chest binders and femme shapewear, mailed discretely to recipients in all 50 states (and 115+ countries and counting!) These garments help trans folks live more safely, comfortably, and authentically and come at no cost to recipients.
• Access to permanent hair removal services for trans femme folks, often considered a cosmetic luxury and unaffordable for many in our community.
• Access to gender-affirming surgery and HRT services for trans folks, many of whom lack the financial resources and/or inclusive health insurance coverage needed to obtain healthcare.

The vast majority of recipients are trans youth, folks with disabilities, and folks living in rural/unaffirming regions.
