Incarcerated trans women self-mutilate for gender-affirming surgery

Incarcerated trans women in New Jersey have been pushed to self-harm amid delays in necessary medical care

Article published: December 11th, 2024.

A trans woman incarcerated in a New Jersey men’s prison severely mutilated herself after waiting years for gender-affirming surgery that would create a pathway for her to move to the state’s only women’s prison. She is one of several trans women in recent years to resort to self-harm amid delays in necessary medical care.

[...]

The New Jersey Department of Corrections (NJDOC) contracts with University Correctional Health Care (UCHC) at Rutgers University to provide medical, dental, and mental health care for those in NJDOC custody. Valentina and other trans women have repeatedly criticized UCHC and NJDOC for what they say is substandard treatment, unreasonable delays, and opaque decision-making.

[...]

The dispute over the treatment of trans women in New Jersey prisons dates largely back to October 2022, when the state changed an internal policy to give corrections officials greater leeway to override trans prisoners’ housing preferences.

[...]

Other trans women, including Valentina and Belladonna, say the policy change—coupled with years long delays in obtaining surgeries that would alleviate officials’ concerns—was used to similarly relegate them to men’s prisons where they’ve face sexual abuse, harassment, and violence from both staff and incarcerated men.

[...]

According to ACLU attorney and expert on transgender rights Chase Strangio, courts have repeatedly found that denying incarcerated people medical care, including transition-related care, is unconstitutional—though the practice of providing that care remains a different story.  

“The government, once it confines someone against their will, cannot deliberately withhold needed medical care,” Strangio said in an interview with Them. “This basic constitutional requirement is being treated as controversial because the media and state and federal lawmakers have so effectively demonized transgender people … that the idea that the Constitution would protect us is itself seen as something bordering on a joke.”

If anyone, at all, can match even a 10th of my donation, I'd consider it a massive christmas gift.

Please, help my friend Mohammed. His family is cold, and hungry.

It would mean a great deal to me.

URGENT🚨

We are suffering from the spread of skin diseases in displacement camps due to contamination in food and water, and there are no hygiene products in the markets. How long will we endure this life? It is essential to curb the spread of these diseases and provide hygiene supplies and medications!

إذا لم نمت من القصف سنموت من الأمراض‼️

If we don't die from the bombing, we will die from diseases.

HELP US SURVIVE

I cannot bear to lose another dear person to my heart.
