This project aims to document health and psychosocial risks and resilience among the transgender/nonbinary communities in Colorado.

This study uses a statewide online survey to examine a number of topics that shape the lived experience of transgender/nonbinary communities in Colorado. Topics include health care experiences, mutual aid and informal health care access, mental health issues and service experiences, hope and gender euphoria, as well as sexual health. Results will contribute to the literature on transgender/nonbinary communities and inform the policy and advocacy work of One Colorado.
