Some trans people seek medical and/or legal means to change their assigned birth sex or gender and some may simply identify or present themselves differently than their assigned birth sex or gender. UNC Charlotte utilizes the term "trans" as an umbrella and inclusive term for those that transgress or transition between gender norms. This could include, but is not limited to, those who identify as transgender, transexual, transvestite, individuals with an intersex condition, genderqueer or non-binary individuals.

The good news is, you don’t have to run all across the city, because some of the best trans bars and clubs are located in NoDa or Plaza Midwood. But in many ways, that law now feels like it was a test case for the current phase of the fight over transgender rights — and a preview for the controversies dominating the news today. They often find it difficult to navigate systems that are set up with only two separate gender options (male/female).

Charlotte Trans Health is a collective of multidisciplinary healthcare providers committed to gender affirming care through education, community outreach, consultation, and provision of services to the community. Through collaboration, peer education, and consultation, our members strive to increase access to care through enhanced trans-specialized clinical competency of individual healthcare providers and larger systems of care. Education on gender affirming care ranges from limited to non-existent in most clinical programs, thus our providers fill this gap to increase resources and reduce disparities in the Charlotte area. Providers on this list have previously confirmed that they provide trans-affirming care.

The Charlotte Pride Festival wrapped up on Sunday with a parade, floats, dancing and thousands of cheering people filling uptown in every variation of rainbow garb. But this year’s Pride took place against the backdrop of statewide and national fights over LGBT rights that hold center stage in our ongoing culture wars.
She wanted to focus on them but now that they are older and out of the house, she said it's time for her to focus on herself.

It’s big enough to hold events but there were none the night I visited. You have to be a bit more consistent with your efforts by regularly socializing with trans people.

The company has formally changed her name in their system and has approved paid time off for her gender-affirming surgery taking place in August.
And we’ve significantly expanded resources related to HIV/AIDS services and added resources that offer support services for trans folks. In recognition and appreciation of grassroots work led by trans folks across the South, this update also includes links to local resource guides. Our Providing Access to Trans Healthcare (PATH) Program also provides free case management, mental health services, and medical care for uninsured and underinsured transgender and gender diverse individuals.
