Trans Health Project (TLDEF)

Transgender Resources · Minnesota · Free

Health insurance advocacy for trans people. Help with denied claims, appeals, and finding affirming care. Useful for people early in their transition needing connection, info, and affirming providers. Many resources offer informed-consent intake — meaning no gatekeeping letters required for hormone access. Informed-consent models are now widely accepted by WPATH; you don't need a therapist's letter at most clinics. Open at no cost to LGBTQ+ Minnesota residents and the people supporting them.
