My name is Vee, and I am a 13-year-old transgender girl. Since I was little, I’ve known who I am. But knowing and being allowed to live as myself are two very different things.
For many transgender youth like me, gender-affirming healthcare isn’t just about looking a certain way—it’s about survival. It’s about waking up in the morning and not feeling like a stranger in your own body. It’s about reducing the anxiety, dysphoria, and depression that come from being forced into a body that doesn’t match who you are.
I know what it feels like to look in the mirror and feel like you don’t belong in your own skin. I know what it’s like to feel so trapped, so unheard, that you just want to make the pain stop. There were times when that pain became so overwhelming that I turned it inward. Self-harm became a way to cope, to try and release something I didn’t have words for. I didn’t want to feel this way, but when you are constantly told that you shouldn’t exist as you are, that your identity is up for debate, the pain builds up.
I’m not alone in this. So many trans kids feel like this because we are denied the care that could help us feel whole. gender-affirming medication drastically reduces self-harm and suicide rates among trans youth. It’s not just about comfort—it’s about saving lives.
Right now, trans kids across the country are being denied the care they need. Laws and policies are being put in place to strip us of our rights, making it harder—sometimes impossible—to access the medication that can help us live happy and healthy lives. Some of us are forced to go through puberty in a body that feels wrong, leading to emotional distress that no child should have to endure.
Davina apoyó esta petición: Protect Access to Hormone Replacement Therapy and Treatments for Transgender IndividualsI've had friends that were part of the system when we were children. As adults, they finally exposed the abuse they experienced - mental, physical, sexual. The system that was supposed to protect them from their "home environment" exposed them to more abuse than the neglect they experienced in a home with a mother that was a recovering drug addict. Even more mental abuse than they experienced when they found their father's body after he took his own life. The "system" across the nation needs to change - these children should not be victimized by a system that is designed to protect them!
Sunny apoyó esta petición: 🛑 STOP Human trafficking at the hands of our government officialsAs an adoptive mother of two kids who spent time in foster care, I know how fortunate we are that our situation went fairly seamlessly. I know that's not the case for so many vulnerable children (especially those with special needs). The "syetem" everywhere throughout our country needs top down reform and accountability from day one that a child is placed in out of home care. I don't know the full extent of your situation, but I truly hope that there is justice done and resolution.
Raleigh apoyó esta petición: 🛑 STOP Human trafficking at the hands of our government officialsI've read many heartbreaking stories of lives affected by CPS child trafficking organizations. It's government sanctioned kidnapping, and seems to be largely ignored. Families being torn apart should be a last resort and not taken lightly.
Stephanie apoyó esta petición: 🛑 STOP Human trafficking at the hands of our government officialsPeople live paycheck to paycheck but these benefits are the very resources that they have in case of emergencies! Every working employee SHOULD be able to rely on a company that's suppose to work for them, not against them. I hope that with these signatures some good will come of it! If the tables were reversed, you wouldn't want to feel like a slave for minimum wage.
Marina apoyó esta petición: Demand Rocket Mortgage to Fully Comply with ADA Employment RequirementsI am a random Minnesotan yet I know two people whose families have been destroyed by this criminal on the bench.
Rebecca apoyó esta petición: Demand the Resignation of Judge Bonita Jo Atwood for Unlawful MisconductI have unfortunately, been in front of this judge & witnessed first hand her wrath of misconduct. I campaign for her and when the father of my child filed an Exparte based on hearsay l was forced to attend this woman’s court she, disrespected me, screamed, yelled, degraded me and continued a hearing without my attorney as he was stuck on the interstate due to accident on the highway., she looked at and said she was going to take my children from me and knew the witness testifying.
Thank god I got her recused

Jesse apoyó esta petición: Demand the Resignation of Judge Bonita Jo Atwood for Unlawful MisconductTSU showed prejudice against these guys for sure!!! I am from Memphis and you just do not know how people view me before I even talk. They treated these guys all suspects and criminals the entire time. A black school steoreotyping young black men is crazy and hyopcrtiical.
