I think if we all chip in a little bit we might be able to get the essentials covered.

share on this would be greatly appreciated. it's for my friend jess from michigan. she is currently going through homelessness and whatever terrible healthcare coverage a homeless person is afforded in the US won't cover her HRT. she has managed to secure shelter at least for the winter but there are many small things that could help her, though covering DIY is the most important thing. any amount would be a great help.

This is from a trusted friend of mine.

Ban on conversion practices in the European Union

"Objectives :

We call on the European Commission to propose a binding legal ban on conversion practices targeting LGBTQ+ citizens in the European Union:

Conversion Practices are interventions aimed at changing, repressing or suppressing the sexual orientation, gender identity and/or gender expression of LGBTQ+ persons.

Such practices, due to their discriminatory, degrading, harmful and fraudulent nature have been qualified as torture by the United Nations, and are currently being banned in a growing number of States.

The EU plays a key role in the protection of fundamental rights and should take actions to fight against all inhuman practices. The Commission should propose a directive adding conversion practices to the list of euro-crimes and/or amend the ongoing directive on equality (2008) to include a ban on these practices.

Furthermore, to fight against the legislative moratorium, the Commission should also enforce a non-binding resolution calling for a widespread ban of conversion practices in the EU.

Finally, we call on the Commission to amend the Victims’ Rights Directive to establishes minimum standards on the rights, support and protection of victims of conversion practices.

All member states should introduce a ban on conversion practices or review their current ones."

This a thousand times. I get daggers stared at me when I dare to get up in the grocery store to get an item that's out of reach when I am sitting.

How dare I not be paralyzed? Clearly I am not in need of a wheelchair if I can stand up! /s
