HOUSING IS HIV PREVENTION.

🏠🏳️‍⚧️ Housing is more than four walls and a roof. It’s healthcare. It’s safety. It’s stability. And for transgender and gender-nonconforming people, it can be the difference between accessing lifesaving care and going without it. Globally, transgender people face disproportionately high rates of HIV. But the conversation cannot stop at HIV prevention without addressing one of the barriers to healthcare: homelessness. When someone is worried about where they’ll sleep tonight, accessing HIV testing, getting to medical appointments, staying consistent with treatment, or obtaining PrEP can become significantly more difficult. At Trans Housing Coalition, we know that housing and healthcare are deeply connected. That’s why our work goes beyond helping people find a place to live. We connect our community to long-term housing, HIV prevention and treatment services, affirming healthcare, and the supportive resources needed to thrive. You cannot separate housing justice from health justice. This is the first installment of our new HOUSING IS... series, where we’ll explore how housing intersects with public health, violence prevention, reproductive justice, climate justice, and liberation. Because housing isn’t just about having somewhere to sleep. It’s about having the opportunity to live. 💗 Support trans housing.
