2S/Trans ID Peer Support
The 2S/Trans ID Peer Support program at Sunshine House was created to remove barriers faced by anyone trying to update their IDs to reflect their gender identity and/or chosen name.
While there are a number of places now that help fill out vital stats application forms, many people need additional assistance covering fees, connecting to a medical practitioner, replacing documents or just navigating an intimidating process.
We also offer advocacy on behalf of participants at vital stats when necessary, whether or not they applied through Sunshine House.
“Removing barriers” means being as much or as little involved in the process as someone wishes, and we meet one-on-one instead of doing group ID clinics to tailor support to the individual.
