Dear QTP Cutie,

As Pride Month continues, I wanted to send a quick reminder about an important upcoming date.

Our next Free Gender-Affirming Care Kit restock opens on June 13 at 8:00 PM EST.

These kits are available at no cost to trans and nonbinary people and typically go very quickly once the restock opens. If you are hoping to request a kit, we encourage you to be ready when the restock begins.

If you miss this restock, don't worry. We have two additional restocks planned for the remainder of the year:

• August 15, 2026
• November 17, 2026

If you'd like reminders about future restocks, updates about kit availability, and other Queer Trans Project announcements, you can join our notification list here:

What We Do | Gender-Affirming Support | The Queer Trans Project

We provide free, life-affirming resources across the U.S. Build-a-Queer Kits, flight assistance for medical care, and holistic support.

As we've been celebrating Pride Month, I've also been reflecting on the people who made our community's progress possible.

Pride didn't begin as a corporate campaign or a parade. It began with people taking care of one another. Long before Stonewall, transgender, queer, and gender-diverse people were building community, sharing resources, creating safety, and fighting for a future where we could live openly.

This week I wrote a blog honoring some of the Black and Brown trans leaders whose courage and commitment helped shape the LGBTQ+ movement we know today. The piece highlights figures like Marsha P. Johnson, Sylvia Rivera, Stormé DeLarverie, and Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, while also exploring the deep roots of mutual aid and community care that continue to sustain us today.

Their legacy reminds us that Pride has always been about more than visibility. It has always been about showing up for one another.

You can read the blog here:
