  • Summary

  • From navigating transphobia and misgendering to being turned away from shelters, the unique experiences of transgender people are often overlooked. Emily Garcia and Yahni Rose, both transgender women who were unhoused at an early age, share their experiences navigating homelessness infrastructure. They also discuss how the lack of resources for the transgender community often forces them onto the streets. There are insights from Bamby Salcedo, president of the Trans Latin@ Coalition, that are a powerful reminder of the intersectionality of homelessness and gender identity.
