Meet Eric

Eric (he/they) is a 23-year-old trans man who has wanted to start HRT since realizing he was trans at the age of 13. For years, barriers related to family, health, and finances prevented him from accessing care. At 19, when he left for college, Eric was finally able to receive some gender-affirming support in the form of a binder. The binder was life-changing, but he knew HRT was still the missing piece in helping him feel truly like himself.

Eric is an outgoing, fun person who loves to laugh. In his free time, he enjoys baking and cooking, crafting, video games, biking in nature, and going on adventures with his partner. Music is another passion, whether listening to favorite songs on repeat or playing them on the keyboard or guitar.

Eric shared, “Receiving HRT means I can finally start living life without hiding who I am. I’ve waited a decade for this, and with Point of Pride’s support, I don’t have to worry about affording the care I’ve always needed. Everyone will finally be able to see me for who I’ve always been.”
