For nearly 50 years, Lyon-Martin Community Health Services has been a cornerstone of care for trans, non-binary, intersex, and queer communities, providing essential healthcare in an often hostile world. Now more than ever, your support is crucial to help Lyon-Martin continue to provide life-saving, affirming healthcare.
Lyon-Martin is focused on ensuring that this incredible community resource not only survives, but thrives. Your support will directly contribute to the following vital goals:
- Expand Patient Services: Increasing capacity by an additional 1,000 patients per year.
- Preserve Community Heritage: Increasing queer and trans-focused community health jobs, while reclaiming a historic building in the Lesbian Corridor and Native American Cultural District.
- Enhance Community Wellness: Establishing a drop-in community space filled with natural light, plants, and books—offering access to tea/coffee, meals, groceries, laundry, showers, and wellness programs like Traditional Chinese Medicine, physical therapy, and nutrition support.
In a time when anti-trans rhetoric and policies threaten the very existence of trans and gender-nonconforming people, Lyon-Martin’s work is more urgent than ever. With your help, we can preserve this critical resource and ensure that our community has the healthcare, safety, and dignity it deserves.
Will you join us in securing Lyon-Martin’s future? Your contribution will preserve this vital legacy and ensure that Lyon-Martin can continue providing essential healthcare and services to those who need it most.
Together, we can ensure that Lyon-Martin’s doors stay open, and that future generations have a permanent space to receive the care, dignity, and community support they deserve.
