Long story short✨:Things are getting increasingly terrifying as of late and mutual solidarity is so vital right now! I’m looking to meet/talk other trans identifying folx here in Texas to share tips/resources/advice, ect.

What brought me here:💖Hey y’all ! My name is Serene and I’m a trans identifying individual born, raised and currently living in Texas (Suburbs of Harris county as of now) I began transitioning in my teens, and while I never felt Texas was particularly welcoming it’s becoming downright terrifying. I recently had two providers and my potential surgeon cancel my future gender care appointments due to uncertainty after September 1st. I was able to find a private practice that works completely without insurance and state funding and would be able to provide HRT care for me post 09/01. Although I had my name and gender marker changed on my ID and social seven years back I am now working to get it updated on my birth certificate and obtain a Visa due to the current political climate. It took a lot of researching to find resources and I’m positive there’s ones I don’t even know about. I really want to get to know other people in the Texas trans community so we can help one another during these uncertain times. I was planning on moving to Houston or Austin as an assured admission to complete an additional degree but as things stand I’m weary of committing two-three more years in Texas . I’ve been seriously reconsidering relocating to a safe state and residing there for a year before enrolling as an in state student. If anyone else has been contemplating/or is currently moving out of state because of the same concerns. I definitely want to talk about game plans/ideal states, ect. If I do relocate I’d highly prefer doing so with a roommate of a similar experience as me, so if you’re of the same thought process totally let me know!

Thanks for reading all that 😅 hope to hear from you! Please stay safe !!!
