Name & gender marker support letter

Attention Florida members: As of 1/26/2024, amending the gender marker on Florida driver license and identification cards is no longer possible. Due to this ban, we are unable to provider gender marker letters of support for individuals seeking to change their license or ID in Florida. 

Updating your name and gender marker as a transgender person varies from state-to-state. We recommend checking these resources for navigating the process for gender marker and name change in your state:

• Plume has partnered with Transgender Legal Defense and Education Fund (TLDEF) to provide name and gender marker change support for low-income transgender individuals in select service areas. See if you are eligible here. 

• Trans Equality  (national database)

• Transgender Law Center (national database)

• Solace, an app that focuses on gender affirmation and includes state-by-state guides for the name/gender marker change process.
