I believe that Trans teens who suffer from dysphoria, have a right to be comfortable as themselves and if that means getting a binder they should get one. I have known people .from all around the world, who have suffered from irreversible damage because of unsafe binding. I'd hate for it to happen to anyone else, so please, sign this to help. thank you.

I am currently reaching out to local health clinics to discuss safe binding resources for our youth. Take a moment to text three friends the link to this petition so we can keep the pressure on our local representatives to support this program.

The momentum behind this push proves that people understand the urgency of protecting trans youth from unsafe binding practices. Post the link to your Facebook feed right now and text three friends to keep this pressure building. We need to get this in front of the people making decisions.

As a trans* kid with un supportive parents, bad dysphoria, and multiple trans* friends, I know it is essential to feel comfortable. Today I hurt my side binding with plastic wrap, my friend was unformed and didn't have the resources and used ace bandages!! And I know more people who used wrap and it's not good. We would at least like to feel more comfortable in our bodies, when we already get enough hate. I cried for hours from dysphoria, and I don't want anyone to hurt themself over that. Stay safe❤
Im transgender and in need of a binder and i dont understand becuase when your 15 years old were am i gonna get money to buy 1
I hate that other trans and nonbinary people like me have to suffer with the embarrassment of leaving there house. there have been times that my dysphoria got so bad that I wanted to die or cut off my breasts. its just not fair to people who don't have the money to buy a binder for themselves. what are we supposed to do live hating our bodies and not being able to hide it. I hate it!
Everyone with gender dysphoria should be offered a free chest binder. I suffer from dysphoria and its hard not being able to afford a chest binder.
please help us feel better in out skin rather than being forced into a gender we are not
:3c
Let us feel comfortable in our own skins!

As a young trans gender who experiences gender dysphoria fairly often I'd like to give others a fair chance at being comfortable in their own skin even if it means binding, and I'd much rather they be able to SAFELY bind than risk causing irreversible damage to their bodies.
