“Las personas trans existen. Somos parte del diverso mosaico de la vida humana, y no vamos a permitir faltas de respeto de amigos, enemigos, falsos amigos, ni de mi gobernador.” — Monica Roberts, defensora de los derechos trans, periodista y editora fundadora de TransGriot.

Monica Roberts (1962–2020) fue un ícono y una voz pionera en la defensa de los derechos trans, tanto en su estado natal de Texas como en todo el país. En 2006, fundó TransGriot, un blog pionero dedicado a temas que afectan a las mujeres trans, particularmente a las mujeres de color. Su cobertura ayudó a atraer la atención nacional hacia las alarmantes tasas de homicidios de personas trans, y trabajó incansablemente para identificar a víctimas que habían sido malgenerizadas y mencionadas con nombres mu***os por la policía y los medios locales. Roberts también escribió para Ebony.com, Huffington Post, The Advocate y la columna Unapologetically Trans en la revista OutSmart. Entre sus numerosos reconocimientos se encuentran el Premio de Medios GLAAD al mejor blog, el premio Barbara Jordan Breaking Barriers y el Premio Susan J. Hyde de 2020 por Longevidad en el Movimiento.

“Trans people exist. We are part of the diverse mosaic of human life, and we will not be disrespected by friend, foe, frenemy, or my governor.” -- Monica Roberts, Transgender Rights Advocate, Journalist, and Founding Editor of TransGriot Weekly.

Monica Roberts (1962 – 2020) was an icon and a trailblazing voice for transgender rights, both in her home state of Texas and around the country. In 2006, she founded TransGriot Weekly, a pioneering blog about issues pertaining to trans women, particularly women of color. Her coverage helped bring national attention to the alarming rates of transgender homicide, and she worked tirelessly to identify victims who were misgendered and deadnamed by the police and local media. Roberts also wrote for EBONY, HuffPost, The Advocate, and the Unapologetically Trans column in OutSmart Magazine. Her many honors include the GLAAD Media Award for outstanding blog, the Barbara Jordan Breaking Barriers Award, and the 2020 Susan J. Hyde Award for Longevity in the Movement.

Spreading holiday cheer and an urgent message: stop the Medicaid cuts! 🎶❄️🎅

This morning at Penn Station, we joined Housing Works Inc. and our partners in the Medicaid For US–NY campaign for Caroling for Health Justice to sing rewritten carols, hand out flyers, and share a simple message with commuters: stop the Medicaid and health care cuts and protect federal HIV funding.

If Congress doesn’t act, HR1 could jeopardize care for more than 1.5 million New Yorkers, including nearly 100,000 Long Islanders in NY-01 and NY-02.

📣 We’re calling on Congressman Nick LaLota and Rep. Andrew Garbarino (and the entire NY delegation) to protect our communities.

Be yourself with Amida Care

Amida Care is a not-for-profit health plan in New York, NY, that specializes in providing comprehensive health coverage and coordinated care to Medicaid members living with or at higher risk for HIV.

In 1999, the New York State Department of Health in collaboration with the AIDS Institute provided grant funding for the development of customized approaches to chronic disease management. In response, six community-based New York City HIV/AIDS providers came together to develop and launch Amida Care (then Vida Care) in 2003.

We currently serve 7,000+ members throughout the five boroughs of New York City, including people living with HIV/AIDS; people who are experiencing homelessness, regardless of HIV status; and people of transgender experience, regardless of HIV status. We provide individualized attention and support to our members to help them live their authentic, best life.
