Summary

Official abstract published by the California legislature· summary

Existing law establishes the Transgender, Gender Nonconforming, and Intersex Wellness and Equity Fund under the administration of the State Department of Public Health, for purposes of funding grants, upon appropriation by the Legislature, to create programs, or funding existing programs, focused on coordinating trans-inclusive health care for individuals who identify as transgender, gender nonconforming, or intersex (TGI) . Existing law makes the grants available to TGI-serving organizations, as specified. Existing law defines terms, including "health care" and "gender nonconforming," for purposes of these provisions. This bill would rename the fund as the Two-Spirit, Transgender, Gender Nonconforming, and Intersex (2TGI) Wellness and Equity Fund and would make a conforming change to a related provision. The bill would expand the availability of grant funds to 2TGI-serving organizations, as defined, for purposes of providing workforce development training for 2TGI individuals, resettlement and social integration programs for 2TGI asylees and immigrants, and diversion programs for, and outreach to, transitional-age 2TGI youth. Under the bill, an organization that serves tribal populations would also be eligible for a grant for any of the specified purposes if that organization applies in partnership with a 2TGI-serving organization. The bill would revise the definition of "health care" to include mental health services and would define "Two-Spirit" and "transitional-age 2TGI youth" for purposes of these provisions. The bill would make related legislative findings.
