Existing law establishes the Transgender Wellness and Equity Fund, under the administration of the State Department of Public Health's Office of Health Equity, for the purposes of funding grants to create programs, or funding existing programs, focused on coordinating trans-inclusive health care for individuals who identify as transgender, gender nonconforming, or intersex (TGI) . Existing law makes the grants available to TGI-serving organizations, defined as an organization with a mission statement that centers around serving transgender, gender nonconforming, and intersex people, and where at least 65% of the clients of the organization are TGI. This bill would rename the fund as the Transgender, Gender Nonconforming, and Intersex Wellness and Equity Fund and define the terms transgender, gender nonconforming, and intersex. The bill would add to the definition of a TGI-serving organization a nonprofit that serves as the fiscal agent or sponsor for an above-described organization and would require a nonprofit serving in that capacity to pass all funding to the above-described organization, but would authorize a reasonable or industry standard fee for administrative costs.
