According to a 2020 survey from the Center on American Progress, nearly 1 in 2
transgender adults have had insurers deny them coverage for gender affirming care.
That’s not a small gap in the system. That’s a barrier that affects real bodies, real timelines, and real well-being.
At The Project, we see how insurance denials create delays and stress to our people. Especially when care is already hard to access.
Gender-affirming care is healthcare. And everyone deserves care that respects who they are, without having to fight for it. With partners like Public Health Institute of Metropolitan Chicago , we're here to support our trans community with affirming, compassionate care and to help navigate systems that too often say “no.”
If you need care, resources, or support, we are here.
