Standing Strong: InReach Reaffirms Commitment to Increasing Verified LGBTQ+ Resource Access in Response to Second Trump Administration 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

As we process the results of the U.S. general election and the reality of a second Trump administration, we find ourselves in a moment of deep reflection and renewed determination to increase LGBTQ+ resource access. At InReach (fka AsylumConnect), we remember the challenges faced during the first Trump administration—especially by those in our community who are asylum seekers, undocumented, transgender or gender non-conforming (TGNC), BIPOC, and/or women. The hostility and discrimination that took root during that period left lasting impacts, and we understand how politically charged environments like this can further marginalize those already facing significant barriers to care. 

Despite this sobering news, InReach remains resolute. No matter the obstacles ahead, we are committed to connecting LGBTQ+ people facing persecution and discrimination with safe, independently verified resources. Our verified LGBTQ+ resource platform is here for anyone in need—always. 💚

Our Mission is More Vital Than Ever

The unprecedented wave of anti-LGBTQ+ state legislation across the country highlights just how critical InReach’s mission is at this moment. In times of heightened uncertainty, our platform will continue to serve as a free digital lifeline for thousands of LGBTQ+ people across all 50 U.S. states, D.C., U.S. territories, Canada, and Mexico.

The Road Ahead: Urgent Calls to Action

Now, more than ever, we invite you to stand with InReach as we face these challenges together. Here’s how you can take action:

Together, we can build a future where every LGBTQ+ person has access to the affirming resources they need to thrive—no matter who is in the White House. 

Thank you for standing with us. 💚

In solidarity, 

The InReach Team
