The TransLatin@ Coalition (TLC), a leading organization advocating for Transgender, Gender Non-Conforming, and Intersex (TGI) Latinx communities, has been targeted by a series of bomb threats and hate mail directed at its members and facilities. These despicable acts represent a dangerous escalation in the ongoing violence and discrimination faced by TGI communities worldwide.

The TransLatin@ Coalition cordially invites press members to a significant press conference, marking the launch of the organization's 15th Anniversary Campaign and unveiling the 2023 Annual Report.

The TransLatin@ Coalition is thrilled to announce the release of the comprehensive study, "From Surviving to Thriving: A Quality of Life Study with Transgender, Gender Nonconforming, and Intersex (TGI) Adults in the City of Los Angeles." This groundbreaking research was a collaborative effort between The TransLatin@ Coalition and the prestigious Williams Institute at UCLA Los Angeles.

In a historic moment for the Transgender, Gender Diverse, and Intersex (TGI) community, The TransLatin@ Coalition is overjoyed to celebrate the recent passage and signing of two groundbreaking bills, AB 1487 and AB 1163, by California Governor Gavin Newsom. These vital pieces of legislation, sponsored by the California Transgender, Gender Diverse, and Intersex Policy Alliance (CTPA) Health and Human Services Network, represent a significant step forward in the fight for equality and dignity.

The TransLatin@ Coalition as a founding member of the California Transgender, Gender Diverse, and Intersex Policy Alliance (CTPA), a leading advocate for the specific and often overlooked issues that transgender, gender-nonconforming, and intersex (TGI) individuals face, expresses its vehement condemnation of Governor Newson's lack of support for our TGI community. Despite California's reputation for promoting freedom and equality, and passing many pro “LGBTQ” bills, we demand that the Governor stops leaving the TGI community last. 

Congressman Jimmy Gomez (CA-34) is pleased to announce the allocation of $750,000 in community project funding through the House of Representatives to support the vital workforce development efforts of The TransLatin@ Coalition.
