Dear Signer of the Petition for Gender Affirming Care at UNMH,
Thank you so much for taking the time to sign the petition. We have some exciting news! And just 6 more days to meet our goal of 500 signatures! If everyone who has signed already is able to get 1 comrade to sign, we will more than double our goal.
Are you able to send the petition to 1 friend, group or listserve you are a part of? If so, you can send them this link: www.openpetition.org/!gendercareunmh You can also print out the petition, collect signatures, and upload it onto this site if you are so inspired!
Good news: Thanks to the pressure of folks who have emailed, called, and had conversations with UNMH leadership, some of the the higher level management within UNMH are having conversations they have never had before about beginning a multi disciplinary one-stop model for gender affirming care- where all care- like endocrinology, therapy, primary care, and surgical care to be met in a single service line where trans folks will be respected, honored and offered compassionate, affirming care! Good work everyone!
Continued pressure will still be supportive to let UNMH know just how many folks care about this issue and will support them to follow through on these great ideas with actionable steps, like funding from the NM state legislature etc.
In these difficult times as the systems that are currently in place are failing us, and crumbling, it is important to keep dreaming, to keep visioning what we want to build to catch us.
Thank you for your continued support!
