Massachusetts has invested a $7.5 million for gender-affirming care, bringing the Affirming Health Care Trust Fund up to $8.5 million.
This investment is vital to ensuring that gender-affirming care remains accessible in Massachusetts. As federal attacks seek to severely restrict gender-affirming care across the country, these funds are critical in protecting trans and gender-diverse people.
On behalf of Transhealth, thank you to our state legislators, Governor Healey, and all of our advocates fighting for trans lives across the state who made this possible. The Affirming Health Care Trust Fund is a lifeline to our communities here in Massachusetts.
