The nation’s largest statewide #LGBTQ+ civil rights organization. Until the work is done. Active posting ended 5/5/25; follow us on Bluesky @eqca.bsky.social!
We’re done with X. The rise in hate speech, bot attacks, and disinformation has made the platform increasingly hostile — especially for the communities we serve. Like many, we’re ending active posting here. But don’t fret: We’re on MANY other platforms — so be sure to follow us!
After an #earthquake, be ready for aftershocks over several days or weeks. Listen to local radio and TV programs for reliable emergency information and watch out for official emergency alerts. #ListosCalifornia

Our statement on today's HHS anti-transgender healthcare "report."
Let’s be absolutely clear: Transgender people have always existed—and no administration, no law, no lie, and no crusade of hate will erase them.

Thank you to California's own @RepMarkTakano and @EqualityCaucus for leading on reintroduction of the #EqualityAct. It has never been more urgent to protect LGBTQ+ people from discrimination.
We are proud to support #AB727 by @AsmMarkGonzalez, especially at a time when funding for LGBTQ+ youth suicide prevention is being cut. Shame on @HHSGov and @SecKennedy for putting already vulnerable lives in danger. https://t.co/Luwa2X3kTK

If you or someone you know is struggling, help is available:
• Call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
• Call (877) 565-8860 for Trans Lifeline (TGI individuals).
• Call (866) 488-7386 for the Trevor Hotline (LGBTQ+ people 24 and under).
Suicide prevention demands investment, not abandonment. LGBTQ+ youth face heightened risks—and in moments of crisis, access to affirming, immediate support can be life-saving.
Per our friends at @TrevorProject:
• Over 1.8 million LGBTQ+ youth seriously consider suicide each year.
• The current LGBTQ+ youth hotline has supported more than 1.2 million callers.
• After the last inauguration, Trevor’s crisis services saw spikes in demand—up to 46%
Shame on @SecKennedy and @HHSGov for plans to defund a critical suicide prevention hotline for LGBTQ+ youth—an already vulnerable population currently under attack by the Trump Administration. https://t.co/3uy7nS3DKM
