Please write #NY Governor Hochul and urge her to sign the bill that has been on her desk for months!! A bill that gives #HomelessYouth the right to consent to their own healthcare.
You can contact her here:

Thank you!
The legislation would amend existing public health law to empower children under age 18 who are classified as “runaway or homeless youth,” or RHY, to give consent for medical, dental, health and hospital services, and comes amid a wave of legislation targeting trans kids elsewhere in the nation.
So, an introductory post to get some hastags out there.
My days are spent working to ensure there are services and supports for #HomelessYouth in #RochesterNY which includes #LGBTQYouth and #antiracism work. Pretty jaded by where all of our "awareness" about #HumanTrafficking has gotten us, but forever committed to the young people who have experienced it. #EndYouthHomelessness
We have 4 #cats so obligatory pics are certain to be forthcoming. #Wampa #DrOctopus #Venom #Hobgoblin 1/2
