PROGRAMS AND SERVICES ACTIVISM & ADVOCACY FAITH COMMUNITIES Transgender Resource Guide State of California and National A Partial Listing of Programs, Faith Communities, and Health Care Services. 1 On behalf of the Transcending Transgender Program and the Alameda County Office of AIDS Administration, we are happy to present you with the first edition of our Transgender Resource Guide. This tool is designed to assist you and your organization in locating available resources specific to the Transgender Community. Social service programs, health services and open and affirming faith communities are some sections we feel will be useful for you, your staff and your clients. Our intent is to provide relevant information, while creating a tool that is easy to navigate. We view this project as a work in progress requiring revisions and updates. As we continue to challenge intolerance and hatred, we invite collaborations and suggestions that will further our mission to ultimately transcend boundaries and restore hope to the Transgender Community. We hope you find the Transgender Resource Guide useful and we welcome your comments for future revisions. 2 “I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am not a boy but a girl. I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman. I am the sister who holds her HIV infected brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights. We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time. I am the transsexual who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room. I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again. I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear. We are the couple who had the realtor shut the door on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for a me and my transgender boyfriend. I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me. I am the transsexual woman who turned to drugs because my parents didn’t accept me and the world didn’t understand me. I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out I had no insurance to pay for basic care. I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support sys- tem to turn to because I am a transmale. I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to fags. I am the father who could never understand why my son likes dresses. I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only men do that. I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual. More importantly because they think I deserved what ever happened to me. I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much healthier person if I didn’t have to always deal with doctors treating me like an experiment. I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don’t believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind and told me that GOD could never love someone like me. I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, ...LOVE. ” -Unknown Dedicated to all the Transgender men and women we have lost...may we always be reminded of why we do this work.
