It's a shame that the @NZNationalParty imploding live before our eyes (newsfeeds) has to take away from the amazing news of our #Transgender#healthcare system finally starting to improve. #nzpol https://t.co/DfGAheW6UA
“Our health system has never met the needs of transgender New Zealanders, and that has to change, I am taking advice on what the next steps are to improve health care for transgender New Zealanders." - @jamespeshaw#GCS4NZ

Oct 17th is the first international #PronounsDay. Referring to people by the pronouns they determine for themselves is basic to human dignity. Being referred to by the wrong pronouns particularly affects transgender and gender nonconforming people.
If you believe you should always be able to access #healthcare#surgery options in #NZ please sign our petition. We should not have to be told "sorry your policy excludes....." Or that the waiting list is 2, 10 or 50 years.

@LGBTQNZ@AnnaCwhyte@SundayTVNZ@RainbowYOUTH@insideoutkoaro@younglabournz We have launched this petition to ban all forms of conversion therapy, both for sexual orientation and gender identity. The select committee will consider both of our petitions and may recommend legislation. When our petition is submitted we will ensure it protects trans people.
@AndrewLittleMP with so much attention around the petitions to ban Conversion Therapy what is your opinion on @DavidClarkNZ 's comments about Government not intending to pursue a ban, and how this may or may not pass through Parliament?

Would you agree to amending the #KiwiSaver regulations to allow the accessing of funds for private surgery where the public waiting list is too long, or the surgery is not available in New Zealand?

We're working on a cool new tool for the @LGBTQNZ website. It's a data graphing tool for Lab Results to visually track hormone levels (You can also view them in a text format too). We're leveraging the power and flexibility of the awesome @umbraco CMS as well as #GoogleCharts
