Trans Immigrant Project at Make the Road New York
The Trans Immigrant Project at Make the Road New York is dedicated to supporting transgender, gender non-conforming, intersex, and queer (TGNCIQ) people of color who disproportionately face high levels of poverty, police brutality, and workplace discrimination. Against the backdrop of a worsening political climate, incidents of hate violence are on the rise, with various states across the US constantly introducing new anti-TGNCIQ legislation. In response, MRNY is actively engaged in resisting these injustices by advocating for pro-TGNCIQ policies, providing vital support services to community members, and cultivating a nurturing environment where TGNCIQ lives are valued and honored.
