This week is a special training meeting with our Regional Organizer, David Lefevre, on strategic campaign planning. We are at a critical point in our pressure campaign and this will help us plan our strategy going forward. Thank you to everyone who came out to Our Children Deserve Better, our Trans Healthcare Town Hall on September 25th! You showed Open Door, and all of Humboldt County, that our community stands with trans youth. The fight isn't over: Open Door still needs to reverse its decision to cut off gender-affirming care for patients under 19. Join us this Thursday to plan our next steps to keep up the pressure and make sure every kid in Humboldt County gets the care they need.
