GIVE CARE.
Queer Care Connections Mutual Aid Fund
BE PART OF QUEER HEALING.
Your gift goes directly toward Queer and Trans folx receiving care. These are folx who are seeking care to repair from trauma, folx who have been displaced after coming out to their families, folx who need help processing their sexual orientation. Queer Care Connections has a waiting list of folx who are seeking care and need aid. Queer and Trans folx have barriers so great, they will not receive care without aid. Will you consider giving now to provide care for Queer and Trans folx?
We especially request churches, religious leaders and institutions to give! How powerful would it be if the religious communities where Queer folx suffered harm were the same communities contributing to their healing? Religious institutions have been a huge source of pain and hurt for Queer and Trans folx. Can you help?
Will you help a baby Queer?! Will you break down one of the barriers keeping them from receiving care?
Sponsoring a Baby Queer is a great way to join the Queer Care Movement. Different folx need different amount of support each month!
$150-300 can provide monthly emotional support and gender affirming care for Trans & Queer Youth.
$75-130 provides weekly session.
$35-70 can support a youth attending a Queer Care Class
Barriers these youth are facing:
Housing Instability
Food Insecurity
Job insecurity directly related to appearance & gender identity.
Lack of Support from Family/Community
Invisible Disabilities
Unique Realities to being on the Spectrum & or Neurodivergent.
Thoughts of Suicide & Self Harm
When you are having to worry about where you will live, work, and eat each week, pursuing care for your trauma is hard to prioritize. Healing from trauma can provide new pathways and capacity for thriving that directly impact someone’s ability to secure housing, food, and a living wage. There is no wrong way to start trauma care and there should be many ways to help connect folx to resources in the process of their healing.
