Trans and Gender-Nonconforming Youth
The ACLU works in courts, legislatures, and communities to defend and preserve the individual rights and liberties that the Constitution and the laws of the United States guarantee everyone in this country.
If you've been discriminated against based on sexual orientation, gender identity, or HIV status, the ACLU wants to hear about it.

Everyone has the right to be themselves in school, including young people whose appearance or identity doesn't correspond with the gender they were assigned at birth. Young people's gender identity and expression should also be respected when they're interacting with police or being held in legal custody or foster care. The ACLU is working to make sure transgender and gender nonconforming youth are treated fairly and with the dignity they deserve.
