Action Santé Travesti(e)s et Transsexuel(le)s du Québec

Action Santé Travesti(e)s et Transsexuel(le)s du Québec (ASTT(e)Q), also known as Québec Trans Health Action, is a project of CACTUS-Montréal which was founded in 1998. ASTT(e)Q was started largely in response to the need for access to health care and social services that were sensitive to trans people’s needs. The project grew out of a support group for trans women living with HIV, and was informed by a trans community led needs assessment that aided in determining the shape and direction of ASTT(e)Q. The organization is a part of a long and rich history of activism, advocacy, and community organizing for improved access to health care and social services, housing, decent working conditions (particularly for sex workers), as well as HIV prevention, and an overall greater quality of life for trans people in Québec.
