Help SPARTA Pride Fight the Trans Military Ban

Transgender service members and veterans signed up to serve their country and fight for us. Now it's time we fight for them.

When you support SPARTA Pride with a donation, you help maintain and expand our ability to:

• Provide weekly peer support meetings and moderated online support groups
• Advocate on Capitol Hill and beyond
• Offer grants for trans people in need of financial assistance
• Connect our community with the best resources and experts
• Be experts on the latest policies and legislation
• Host events that bring together our community for support and advocacy 
• Expand our presence online and have the digital tools we need to succeed
• Grow our paid staff so we have more hands on deck

Your help is more critical than ever. The VA has turned its backs on those who earned benefits by ceasing gender-affirming care and ending nearly all discrimination protections for transgender, nonbinary, and intersex veterans.

The DoD is purging trans service members from the armed forces without cause, upending thousands of lives and families, while leaving units with critical operational gaps. While awaiting separation, these courageous service members have lost access to most military healthcare and have had their personnel records switched to their birth sex despite what their legal documents say. 

No trans person should have to endure these indignities. Especially not those who raised their hands to serve their country, and in many cases have spent the last 1-2 decades capably, honorably, and selflessly wearing the uniform.
