Meet Lucius

Lucius (they/them) is a nonbinary transmasc person who recently escaped an abusive situation that left them unhoused. With no insurance, income, or transportation due to financial abuse, affording HRT or labs felt impossible. They believed it would take months of saving before even being able to consider restarting treatment.

Despite these hardships, Lucius holds onto their love of learning and hopes to return to school in the coming years, possibly to study engineering. For them, access to HRT is about survival and authenticity. “I already had to detransition once through familial pressure, so the idea of losing access again was unbearable,” they shared. With support, Lucius can now continue their hormone therapy and move closer to the vision of themselves they know they deserve.
