I’d love to hear why other trans and queer refugee folks picked their state! Perhaps I should move to Washington?

  • Thanks! Luckily I’m in the mid Atlantic and my state is mid on LGBT protection laws… Though it is a purple state. I also have a partner and a job (which I didn’t always have), so I don’t consider myself high risk right now. I would like to be somewhere with stronger protections one day, though.
