South Carolina lawmakers are moving forward with H. 4624, an Anti-Trans Healthcare bill that would immediately ban medically necessary care for trans youth and restrict care for some adults, too. This cruel ban will have devastating consequences for families across South Carolina, and we want to show lawmakers exactly who it would hurt if it passes.

We want to hear from you and your family about the dangers and harms of these bans. Whether you’re a transgender young person, the parent or caregiver or family member of a trans youth, a healthcare provider, or a teacher devastated by the message these bills send to young people, please share using this form.

Please take a minute to anonymously share your story with SC United for Justice & Equality. We may be in touch for more information, but we will never share your story without your permission.
