Hi Maureen, I'm hearing of multiple domestic violence charities erasing any mention of trans people from their websites because they receive federal funding. How is ASISTA dealing with this?

I can't speak for them because I'm not a representative, but I know that people in charge are committed to trans lives completely. I don't know the answer, but I definitely know what they think about the issue.

Hi Kari, great question. With deep respect to other orgs also faced with impossible circumstances right now, I can confirm we have never erased anything due to funding. https://asistahelp.org/lgbtq-immigrant-survivors-at-greater-risk/
