Join us to celebrate Trans Day of Visibility and the launch of SLCY’s newest program, Gender-Affirming Legal Care™ for Youth (GALC).
Gender-Affirming Legal Care for Youth is dedicated to increasing access to trauma-informed, youth-centered, and gender-affirming legal services in Georgia. To our knowledge, our GALC program is the first of its kind in the United States, tailored to youth and reflecting the critical need for gender-affirming legal services for trans and gender-expansive youth. Come meet our team, learn more about the program, and hear from young people and about what gender-affirming care means to them.
Admission is free, but you must RSVP through our website by March 26, 2026. Light refreshments provided.

Gender-Affirming Name Change Client Testimonials
“Today I was informed very thoroughly. This process validated my concerns and I now feel prepared to start the legal journey more confidently. Thank you for being so helpful and opening up these spaces to share your resources.”
— Former Client“I believe everything was done extremely well and everyone was quite respectful/welcoming! It was definitely a lot of content to cover but they made it more digestible/clear.”
— Former Client
“Very kind, approachable, and understanding! Easily and clearly explained the process. Wouldn’t change anything! Thank you all for your hard work!”
— Former Client“Even if I had not received counsel in filling out the forms, just having some one locate and send the forms, organized, to my house was immense help. It removed the bureaucratic barriers that had previously prevented me from getting through the legal process. Having that envelope with clear instructions demystified a process which I am certain is designed to be confusing and inaccessible but to a small, privileged few.”
