Horizons Foundation’s Response to United States v. Skrmetti
The Supreme Court decision in United States v. Skrmetti deals a devastating blow to transgender youth and their families. By upholding states’ bans on gender-affirming care for minors, the Court has effectively stripped the right of young people to access safe, effective, and essential medical treatment. This decision not only inflicts irreparable physical and psychological harm on Tennessee’s trans youth and their families, but also those in the 25+ states with similar bans and restrictions.
Applications are Open for LGBTQ Donor Engagement Grants

Reflections from Horizons' Regional Town Halls

To capture the richness of these convenings, five Horizons staff members share what stood out to them.
