With CREDO funding, Transgender Law Center continues the fight for liberation

The Transgender Law Center is the largest national trans-led organization advocating for a world in which all people are free to define themselves and their futures. Grounded in legal expertise and committed to racial justice, TLC employs community-driven strategies to keep transgender and gender nonconforming people alive, thriving, and fighting for our rights.

In April, CREDO members voted to distribute $43,530 to TLC, and the organization has since secured important progress and victories for transgender and gender nonconforming people, including supporting TLC’s general operations including impact litigation and legal support; organizing and movement building; and policy advocacy, public education, and narrative change work.

Here are some highlights of the organization’s recent work that was supported in part by CREDO members:

• Continued work on TLC’s guiding framework, the Trans Agenda for Liberation;
• Trans youth organizing and speaking out against anti-trans youth legislations;
• Continued impact litigation with wins for trans inclusive healthcare;
• Working with journalists to more accurately and effectively cover trans issues, including anti-trans medical bans and athletic bans.
