Providers

The Trans Wellness Initiative acknowledges that access to affirming health care for trans and gender diverse people is scarce and often difficult to find. As a means to connect community members with culturally-competent and affirming providers, the Trans Wellness Initiative has started an affirming provider directory. To be listed in our directory, applicants must agree to the following affirmations:

1. I affirm that there is nothing wrong with being trans or non-binary and adopt a non-medicalizing approach to gender. I recognize that trans and non-binary people are who they say they are and am committed to making my practice inclusive and respectful of these identities.

2. I acknowledge that trans and non-binary individuals have unique and individual needs. While I provide professional guidance on medical safety, I do not make assumptions or decisions about the right gender expression options for any patient.

3. I believe in the right of trans and non-binary people to bodily autonomy and access to life-affirming gender care. I am committed to ongoing learning about the specific health and wellness concerns of trans and non-binary individuals to ensure that I provide high-quality care.

While we do our best to screen and review all applications, the Trans Wellness Initiative is unable to guarantee the accuracy and quality of care provided by the practitioners and organizations listed here.
