Mission:
Fights for health equity and racial justice to advance the quality of life and human dignity of LGBTQ+ people.
About Us:
Since 2008, we have expanded our local advocacy to regional services offering HIV testing, linkage to care, and case management for people living with HIV. As an LGBTQ+ justice organization, we focus our efforts on addressing health disparities in LGBTQ+ communities of color through community outreach, health education, and prevention programs.
In an effort to center social determinants in our service-delivery and outreach, TruEvolution offers emergency supportive housing services for people living with HIV.
Recognizing the gaps in comprehensive, culturally-competent behavioral health services throughout the Inland Empire, TruEvolution opened a behavioral health clinic in 2017. We offer psychotherapy, behavioral health risk assessments, support groups, peer counselors, care coordinators, and emergency trauma-response interventions with a clinical therapist.
Transgender health and wellness is integrated throughout TruEvolution’s services. Our clinicians provide mental health letters of support for surgical procedures related to gender affirmation, linkage to hormone affirming therapy services, endocrinology referrals, and ongoing psychotherapy throughout the stages of gender affirmation. We strive to assure that the entire physical, sexual, and emotional status of our clients is well.
As an advocacy organization, TruEvolution leads its community engagement and public policy efforts on issues directly impacting communities of color in underserved regions. Such efforts include our Youth United high school outreach program, where LGBTQ+ youth can engage in health education and services within a peer-to-peer learning environment.
Community-based organizations serve a vital role in public health infrastructure. TruEvolution works in coalition with other community agencies to bring voice to the policy priorities and gaps in resources for community-based organizations and the populations we serve.
