Posted @withregram • @callenlorde Yesterday, the world lost a true icon and all of us at Callen-Lorde are heartbroken. 💔

Cecilia was a fierce, fearless advocate and a leader, who spoke candidly about her own experiences as a sex worker, a trans woman of color, and an undocumented immigrant. She was the true embodiment of turning your pain into purpose, inspiring countless others, and paving the way for our communities to access high-quality and judgment-free healthcare.

Callen-Lorde started a groundbreaking free healthcare program for sex workers along with Cecilia, named Cecilia’s Occupational Inclusion Network or COIN. In 2019, Cecilia was honored with a Community Health Award in recognition of her leadership and deep partnership with Callen-Lorde. Here is a clip from her acceptance speech where she talks candidly about finding the help she needed at the time, at Callen-Lorde and urging others to support our mission. We were fortunate to have Cecilia as one of our biggest, most impassioned cheerleaders, and we will continue to honor her spirit and keep her legacy alive through our work and beyond.

We love you so much, Cecilia. Thank you for sharing your light and joy with us. May you rest in power.

Good morning everyone. I have some exciting news. I’m officially on hormones. I saw my doctor at @callenlorde last night and got a prescription for Spironalactone and estradiol, so I just wanted to say that I am ready for this next step in my trans journey and cannot wait to see what happens. Cheers to new beginnings! #trans #transgender #transgirl #transition #transwoman #lgbt #lgbtq #love #selflove #spironolactone #estradiol #hrt #hormones #newbeginnings #cheers #callenlorde #lgbtqhealthcare #lgbtqhealth #transpride #pride #instatrans #transisbeautiful #takeyourmeds #selfcare #proudofmyself #hormonereplacementtherapy #genderaffirmingcare #loveyourself #loveyourbody https://www.instagram.com/p/CW-2LKMrMPu/?utm_medium=tumblr

It is so easy to get tested. You have no excuse not to know your status. The destruction of the stigma begins with knowledge. Positive or negative. Callen Lorde is a wonderful place and I am grateful and proud to be a client. #callenlorde #chelsea #clinic #hiv #aids #knowingishalfthebattle #truvada #community (at Callen-Lorde Community Health Center)

Pride Month Spotlight: Callen-Lorde’s Impact

Callen-Lorde Community Health Center, one of Komen Greater NYC’s longtime Community Partners, is a staple in New York City’s LGBTQ community all year round. 

Callen-Lorde provides sensitive, quality health care and related services targeted to New York’s lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender communities, regardless of ability to pay.

One patient, a trans-woman, was referred to Callen-Lorde for a mammogram by her medical provider. The hormone replacement therapy she has been prescribed causes increased breast tissue growth, leading to the need for regular mammograms.The patient was uninsured at the time of the referral, so she met with Jodie, Callen-Lorde’s Women’s Case Manager, for assistance.

During their case management appointment, Jodie assessed her for CSP eligibility but the patient was ruled out because she is not cis-gender. At that point, Jodie connected the patient to the ScanVan, a mobile mammography unit also funded with a Komen Greater NYC grant, where she was seen at no cost.

We are happy to report the patient was able to receive a free mammogram, as directed by her medical provider, and her results were clear. She may not have otherwise been linked to the appropriate care (or even been referred to have a mammogram) had she not been under the medical care of a clinic like Callen-Lorde that provides comprehensive, competent care to people across the LGBTQ spectrum.

This #newyork trip was one for the books; packed with love and new friends, and a lot of special memories that I had to do a #photodump: 1 and 2: Maggie and Andrea! Your day couldn’t be more perfect. Thank you again for wanting me to photograph the day. Your first look gave me chills. 3 and 4: Maggie and Andrea, thank you for the new friends! And yes, I’m obsessed with all of you. 5: the new edition tattoo, representing a story that’s in a story, for another story time. (Hope that was confusing to read just as much it was to write it.) 6-9: @taylorsommerrr’s Halloween party: where my good friend Taylor’s new friend’s that I’ve met and love, meet my other new friends of Andrea’s and Maggie’s. And all of us are all new friends. Oh sweet friendship. Thank you Taylor for throwing one of the most epic Halloween parties. 9: I’m showing my sweet web decorating skills to this fine drunken lad, whom I’ve forgotten his name. (Jk idk what we’re doing in this pic but I thought it was hilarious. Also if anyone knows who this guy is who was there, let me know haha). 10: and lastly the @callenlorde gala event! So much fun and again, met some awesome new friends. Thank you to my New York family for showing me an awesome time and a whole lotta love. 💙🤘🏼 Halloween pictures taken by the oh so handsome and talented @likeamacheen #kellybalchphoto (at New York City, N.Y.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CV1g2JUp-_U/?utm_medium=tumblr
