I imagine you've likely finished your article, but if you do any more work I would be happy to share what I have found, or pass on anything else that may be helpful!

I am very much just a lay person who has been doing a ton of research, trying to find what basics I can and point people towards those starting points/give them an idea of where to find things/encourage people to reach out to any of the free expert resources that are available.

I am so sorry I didn't see this! I had been working on a long form video so hadn't been on bluesky, and I imagine you've likely finished your article by now. If you are looking for an expert on seeking asylum/how Americans could do it, I recommend reaching out to The 519 or Battista Migration Law

Long form video up on youtube now! Going over the basics I have been able to find. I have the script posted, and the script has footnotes with links to all the sources and relevant government pages, so you can go get the info and contact actual experts!

A list of provincial and territorial based resources is up on the resource hub now (I am still adding to it but wanted it up asap to share what's already there). If you are planning to come stay in Canada for a bit, it is good to pick a city that has resources and supports that meet your needs.

Donate Donated funds are redistributed directly to Black trans women in need, who can then have the autonomy to purchase private car ride services, purchase gas for their own vehicles, pay family or friends....

Anyone wanting to help support trans people escape the US, The Black Trans Travel Fund helps Black trans women across the U.S. who need financial support to purchase or renew their passports, pay for TSA Pre-Check, or to purchase an airline ticket. www.blacktranstravelfund.com/donate.html

Two new videos are up on tiktok, one about the option of staying in a borderstate/near the actual border temporarily to be able to work while awaiting a CND work permit, and the other is a warning about folks catfishing as lawyers to prey on vulnerable people.

Amnesty International has a campaign urging the Canadian Government to end the Safe Third Country Agreement! The email campaign link is found here takeaction.amnesty.ca/page/103088/...

There is a new organization linked on the resource hub! Trans Rescue operates out of the netherlands and helps trans people from all around the world relocate to a safer place. You can check out their post about post election assistance to the USA here: transrescue.org/post-electio...

FYI the resources aren't only for 2SLGBTQ+ Americans, it started focusing on resources for the Trans and Non Binary community, expanded from there. There's now something for most everyone, I just haven't been able to figure out how to change the title yet.

I also apologize that the Resource Hub website is not as pretty yet as it could be! I only recently figured out how to make it more user friendly, and have been popping info and links up on the site first and refining it second. But it is in the works!

There were some mistakes on the Resource Hub's webpage on working holiday programs for Americans aged 18-35, it has been corrected and new information and links added! As always, the Resource Hub has the links to the official webpages and expert resources so you can explore those pages yourselves :)

Updates on information added to the Resource Hub Webpage, which shares links to info and resources for Americans wanting to leave the US (including specific 2SLGBTQ+ resources, and trans and non-binary specific resources) are going to be shared on this profile. transresources4.wordpress.com
