DFPS Council Meetings - Several dates throughout 2023

Once again, we are seeking volunteers to provide public comment by sharing the collected testimonies of transgender children and their parents during this meeting or simply be physically present to fill a seat and pack the room. Equality Texas and our coalition partners will provide you with the testimony to read in order to protect the identities of transgender children and their families from being targeted by DFPS.

Sign up to read a testimony or fill a seat to pack the room

If you are a transgender youth, a parent or guardian of a transgender youth, or an impacted professional who works with transgender youth (healthcare providers, teachers), we invite you to share your testimony in the form below for a volunteer to read. As we did at previous meetings, we are working to safeguard the identities of impacted Texans who would like to make their voices heard but, for their own safety, cannot testify in person.
