We often think of transition in 3 buckets: social, medical, and legal. The legal aspect of transition is often a challenging one in which we don’t know where to start or who to go to with questions about changing our name and/or gender marker. Here at Plume we want to help! We have created a user-friendly resource that breaks down the steps to successfully update your name and/or gender marker, and have recorded it as a webinar.
The webinar is hosted by Lana Patel (she/her) and Alex Guerra (he/him) from Plume’s Community team. During the webinar, they will give you tips and tricks to navigating the legal system to successfully change your name and/or gender marker. You can also download the presentation slides along with a guide to help keep all your documents organized throughout the process.
As a reminder, if you are a member of Plume, we can provide you with letters for your name and/or gender marker change! Make sure you message your care team for support.
