Emotional Support Animal Letters
In response to the Los Angeles fires and ongoing housing challenges, Gather & Grow OC is offering sliding-scale ESA documentation services ($0-150) to help community members keep their animal companions during displacement. Our ESA letters, provided by licensed mental health professionals, verify the therapeutic benefits of emotional support animals and protect housing rights. Contact hello@gatherandgrowoc.com with "ESA Letter Request" to begin the process.
Gates & Gatekeepers: An Affirming Approach to Letter Writing
We're thrilled to announce our new free online course "Gates & Gatekeepers" - a heartfelt initiative to transform how mental health professionals support our transgender and gender-expansive community members. Through engaging video lectures, practical templates, and collaborative exercises, we'll explore ways to move beyond traditional gatekeeping towards becoming caring advocates in gender-affirming care. Join us in building a more compassionate, accessible pathway to care for our trans community.
