Following last month’s record $215,000 2023 Community Grants announcement to 39 LGBTQ nonprofits across Texas, Texas Pride Impact Fund announced an award of $10,000 to the Southern Trans Youth Emergency Project (STYEP).
This grant is made possible by its QTCF 2023 fund, a collaboration with Equality Texas Foundation. STYEP is a project of the Campaign for Southern Equality bringing assistance to Texas families of trans and gender diverse youth.
This lifesaving and life-affirming initiative provides information, resources and emergency grants for families responding to the passage of SB14 which restricts healthcare for transgender youth.
The $10,000 award will fund Texas families of trans and gender diverse youth applying for direct financial assistance in their need to access competent healthcare out of state.
