Trans Housing Coalition will be expanding its Housing First Program after receiving a grant from Health Care Advocates International’s HCAI Fund. The non-profit, an Atlanta-based trans-led organization aimed at getting chronically homeless Black trans women off the streets, received $35,000 to support their housing program. “The HCAI Fund grant empowers the Trans Housing Coalition to expand their Housing First Program, providing a crucial lifeline to transgender and gender non-conforming individuals experiencing homelessness in Atlanta,” Mary Wilson, Trans Housing Coalition Executive Director, said in a statement to WSB-TV. “Many individuals in the transgender community need more than housing, they need a community of support. By establishing stable housing, fostering social connections, and ensuring access to healthcare, we can significantly improve health outcomes and quality of life for this vulnerable population.”
