LGBTQIA+ Resources for the Cornell Community: Ithaca and Other Local Resources

"Transgender is an umbrella term that includes people with many diverse experiences, identities, and sexual orientations. ​There is no one right way to be transgender and there are many terms people may use to describe their gender identity. For many transgender people discrimination from health professionals and fear of coming out to providers can be a barrier to accessing health care, including mental health care. This list of resources was compiled by our staff and local transgender community members." From Out for Health, a project of Planned Parenthood

Includes local resources for medical, mental health, social/outreach, substance abuse, parents/caregivers, youth/teen, and legal resources
