This 4th of July, as we celebrate freedom and independence, let’s continue the work of ensuring liberty and equality for all especially our transgender community, who deserve to live with dignity, safety, and pride every day. 🇺🇸🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

#FreedomForAll #TransRightsAreHumanRights #IndependenceDay #WeCareTennessee

Every woman deserves safety, dignity, and the opportunity to thrive no matter her path.

We’re here to advocate for equity, create spaces for healing, and fight for a world where care is not conditional.

🩺❤️ National HIV Testing Day is about more than a test it’s about empowerment, visibility, and protecting our community.

Trans people, especially Black and Brown trans women, continue to face higher risks not because of who we are, but because of the barriers we face.

Knowing your status is powerful. Getting tested is care. Protecting each other is love. 🌈✨

Our journey toward true equality isn’t over, and the fight for the rights of the LGBTQIA+ community is as important as ever. 🏳️‍🌈 While we’ve made progress, there is still work to be done. Every day, we have the power to create change, whether it’s by raising our voices, standing up for justice, or supporting LGBTQIA+ individuals in our lives.

We must continue to advocate for love, acceptance, and equality—not just for Pride Month, but every single day. It’s about ensuring that every person, no matter their identity, feels safe, valued, and seen. So, let’s keep pushing forward, keep speaking out, and keep fighting for a world where everyone is treated with dignity and respect. Stand up, speak out, and keep advocating for love, acceptance, and equality every day. Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈

#EnduringAllyship #PrideForAll #EqualityNow #WeCareTennessee

Pride Month is not only about celebration, but it’s also about mental well-being. 🌈 It’s important to take care of your emotional health and to create safe spaces for others to feel supported. If you or someone you know needs mental health resources, reach out. We are all in this together.

🕯️ Remembering Pulse 🏳️‍🌈

Today, we honor the 49 lives lost and all those forever impacted by the tragic shooting at Pulse Nightclub in Orlando on June 12, 2016. A space meant for joy, freedom, and community became a site of unimaginable pain.

At We Care Tennessee, we carry their memory forward by continuing the fight for equity, dignity, and an improved quality of life for transgender women of color and the communities around them.

We stand against hate. We stand for love. And we will never stop advocating for safe spaces where all people can live, thrive, and be celebrated.

🏳️‍⚧️🌈✊🏾 This is history. This is heart. This is HER voice.

Standing bold at the Lincoln Memorial for World Pride and the National Trans Visibility March, we had the honor of hearing from Jasmine, the fierce and fearless leader of WeCare Tennessee.

Her voice echoed with truth, pain, power, and purpose—a rallying cry for unity, healing, and trans liberation across the South and beyond.

🎤 “We are here to be SEEN. We are here to be HEARD. We are here to be FREE.”

Jasmine doesn’t just lead—she uplifts. Through WeCare Tennessee, she’s building bridges for Black trans women to access health, hope, and healing in a system that too often tries to shut us out.

This moment wasn’t just a march. It was a movement. A declaration that trans lives matter, our stories matter, and our rights are not up for debate. From Tennessee to D.C., we showed up in love, power, and sisterhood.

Healthcare is not one-size-fits-all. This Women’s Health Month, let’s talk about the unique health needs of trans women of color. Trans women of color have always led movements for care, justice, and liberation. This Women’s Health Month, support organizations by and for them.
Fund the future. Share their voices. 💕

May is Mental Health Awareness Month.

Transgender women of color often face multiple layers of discrimination and stress because of their gender identity, race, and sometimes socioeconomic status. Mental health matters because it’s not just about coping but about survival, safety, dignity, and the chance to thrive as a transgender.

Much of the burden comes from systems of oppression that need to be changed and that’s what WeCareTN is about helping build strong, transgender women of color; our resilience and healing in the face of those challenges. Here are five ways to protect and strengthen your mental health this month.

#transisbeautiful #transjoy #mentalhealthawareness #transpride #mentalhealthmatters #youarenotalone #selfcare #resilience

“The drug overdose epidemic in the United States is a clear and present public health, public safety, and national security threat. DEA’s National Prescription Drug Take Back Day reflects DEA’s commitment to Americans’ safety and health, encouraging the public to remove unneeded medications from their homes as a measure of preventing medication misuse and opioid addiction from ever starting.”

Today is an important reminder that safe medication disposal helps prevent misuse, overdose, and addiction, especially in vulnerable communities like the transgender community.
At WeCareTN, we are committed to addressing these issues through initiatives like Project USE and Injection Intersection, which focus on harm reduction, education, and empowerment.

For more information on our projects and programs, visit our website. 🔗 in our bio.

“Studies have shown that transgender women of color are less likely to receive appropriate cancer screenings and are at a higher risk for HIV infection due to barriers in accessing preventive care. These health inequities are further exacerbated by societal stigma and discrimination, which can deter individuals from seeking necessary medical attention.”

National Minority Health Month serves as a critical platform to bring attention to the health disparities affecting transgender women of color and to promote actions aimed at achieving health equity for all minority communities.

#NationalMinorityHealthMonth #MinorityHealth #HealthEquity #HealthJustice #EndHealthDisparities #TransHealthMatters #TransWomenAreWomen #ProtectTransWomen #TransRightsAreHumanRights #TransIsBeautiful #WeCareTN

Now more than ever, it is important for transgender people to have equitable access to healthcare, education, employment and housing. The disproportionate rates of impact that HIV has on the black trans community specifically must be addressed through dismantling the stigma attached to Trans people and to HIV, and navigation of medical distrust. We must talk about pleasure, vulnerability, and access. Testing is an important part of sexual health, and must be normalized in trans communities of color. 🏳️‍⚧️

Last evening, our executive director, Jasmine Tasaki served as one of the panelists for the @midsouthlgbtchamber April Educational Panel Discussion on “DEI: Where Do We Go From Here?” It was an enlightening and educational discussion for the LGBTQIA+ community to help stay aware on this topic and so many more that’s affecting our community.

Black Maternal Health Week (BMHW), held annually from April 11–17, primarily focuses on addressing the health disparities, systemic racism, and inequities that affect Black women during pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum. The central focus is on cisgender Black women due to the disproportionate maternal mortality and morbidity they face in the U.S.

However, the conversation around BMHW can intersect with the health of Black transgender women and gender-expansive people in important ways:

1. Health System Bias and Discrimination
Black trans women often face compounded discrimination—both racism and transphobia—in healthcare settings such as:
• Medical neglect
• Provider bias
• Lack of access to gender-affirming care
• Invisibility in reproductive and sexual health services

2. Inclusive Reproductive Justice
The movement affirms the right to bodily autonomy and healthcare for everyone, including Black trans women seeking affirming care and dignity in healthcare spaces.

3. Expanding the Narrative
Being seen and respected in reproductive and sexual health spaces.

4. Solidarity, Not Competition
Uplift the healthcare needs of Black trans women.

Black parenthood doesn’t always look one way—and that’s the beauty of it.

In this powerful reflection, we hear from @mstasaki —an aunt who’s shown up with love, support, and deep intention. Because in our communities, parenting is a collective act.

Jasmine reminds us that diverse parental representation matters. Our children deserve to see themselves reflected in the caregivers who nurture and guide them—aunties, uncles, godparents, and chosen family who stand in the gap and pour in love.

🖤 Let’s continue to uplift ALL the ways Black maternalhood and parenthood show up in our lives.

Today was a beautiful day to celebrate International Transgender Day of Visibility. The weather turned out nice and the support filled the air for our transgender community.

Thank you to all the incredible organizations, TN State Representative Justin J. Pearson, and the City of Memphis Mayor Paul Young for taking time out of your schedules to show support and make Transgender Day of Visibility a day to remember! Your support helps shine a light on the strength, resilience, and beauty of the transgender community.

Reclaiming Our Humanity: A Call to Truth, Justice, and Liberation 🗣️✊🏽🏳️‍⚧️

Trans lives are not up for debate. We are not talking points. We are not distractions. We are not bargaining chips in a broken political system. We are human. We are artists, parents, healers, builders, and leaders. We deserve safety, dignity, and joy—not someday, but right now.

Both major parties have failed us. They’ve weaponized our existence for headlines, for clout, for fear-based fundraising. But we will not be silent. This is not about politics—it’s about human rights. Trans liberation is not partisan. It is urgent and non-negotiable.

We are reclaiming the narrative. No more letting misinformation define us. No more fear-mongering. Through our voices, our stories, our art, and our relentless presence—we will shatter the lies. We will show the world who we are: powerful, multifaceted, resilient.

Especially for Black trans and gender-expansive folks, the weight of injustice has always been heaviest—yet we have always been at the frontlines. That legacy of leadership, love, and defiance is the backbone of our movement. And we know this truth: no one is free until we all are free.

We are not here for crumbs of inclusion. We are not asking for tolerance. We are demanding liberation. Justice. Autonomy. A future where trans people can live fully, love openly, and thrive unapologetically.

This movement will not be stopped. Because our existence is not a debate. It’s a declaration.

💥 We are here, And we are rising up against the false narratives that the media is telling of our intersectional community.💥

As we celebrate Women's History Month, we pause to honor the powerful, often overlooked contributions of trans women of color.

This month, we lift up their voices, recognize their strength, and commit to amplifying their presence in all spaces. Their history is our history, and their brilliance continues to inspire generations to come.

It's National Drug and Alcohol Facts Week.

Studies suggest that LGBTQ+ individuals, including transgender people, are more likely to use alcohol and other drugs, developing problematic or dependent use at higher rates than the general population. Research indicates that transgender and gender-diverse individuals face unique challenges related to substance use. Here are four current facts and statistics. WeCareTN understands the importance of developing inclusive and supportive interventions tailored to the unique needs of transgender and gender-diverse communities.
