The U.S. Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration awarded a $750,000 Project Grant under the Community Project Funding/Congressionally Directed Spending program (CFDA 17.289) to The Translatin@ Coalition (TLC), a minority-owned, Hispanic American-owned nonprofit organization. The grant enables TLC to provide culturally responsive services to transgender, gender non-conforming, and intersex (TGI) individuals, particularly those from underserved populations. The funding supports a comprehensive range of support services delivered by TLC, including case management, behavioral health therapy, criminal justice system navigation, transitional housing assistance, and emergency services. This grant award is part of TLC's broader portfolio of federal grants, which also includes a $600,000 award from the U.S. Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women to expand access to services for TGI victims, and a $1.2M grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration to implement prevention navigation services for high-risk TGI youth and adults of color.
