Caregiver Membership Agreement:

By signing this caregiver membership agreement and joining as a caregiver member of Louisiana Trans Advocates, I certify the following:

  1. I am the parent, guardian, or caregiver of a transgender, nonbinary, or gender nonconforming person who meets one of the below requirements:

    • living in the state of Louisiana

    • living in a state that borders Louisiana where an LTA chapter is the closest trans social support resource

    • living elsewhere but as a former resident of Louisiana who retains close ties to the state or LTA

  2. I will take action against racism and white supremacy, misogyny, classism, cissexism, and heterosexism, whether internalized, interpersonal, or institutional, and I commit to continuing to educate myself on racism and systemic oppression and to taking accountability for any harm I cause. 

  3. I believe in the core human rights of self-determination and expression for all trans, nonbinary and gender nonconforming people and will not disrespect, demean, or discriminate against people on the basis of their gender identity, their decisions related to social or medical transition, or any other characteristic related to a person’s gender expression and self-determination.

  4. I acknowledge and understand that should I take actions in conflict with the above agreement that I forfeit my right to membership in LTA and the benefits of that membership.
