About this organization
Mission
interACT uses innovative legal strategies to advocate for the civil rights of children born with variations of reproductive or sexual anatomy. We engage parents, doctors, attorneys and intersex activists in strategy discussions; stimulates legal dialogue about the fundamental rights of children born with intersex traits, and employ traditional and non-traditional legal tools to ensure justice for this vulnerable group of children.
About
interACTs Law & Policy program aims to protect children born with intersex traits by promoting policy changes in medical practice, legislation, regulation, and the courts both in the U.S. and beyond. Our legal team allies with top human rights and legal organizations worldwide to advance intersex rights and raise up the voices of intersex youth. This year we congratulate Law and Policy Director Alesdair Ittelson for being named a top LGBTQ attorney under 40 by the National LGBT Bar Association. In 2018 the program accomplished two major projects:- Californias SCR-110: Our resolution affirming the bodily autonomy of intersex youth, became an official resolution of the State of California in August 2018, is the first legislation in U.S. history to explicitly name the harms of non-consensual cosmetic medical interventions on intersex people. The legislators who voted in support of SCR 110 were proud to back our position of waiting to perform any procedure that is not medically necessary until an intersex person can provide their own informed consent.- Intersex Hospital Policy Guide: With our partner Lambda Legal, we created the first ever Intersex-Affirming Hospital Policy Guide. The guide was born from interviews with top medical allies and intersex individuals, centering their experiences throughout every page. The guide is a blueprint for institutions to provide sensitive, affirming care to intersex people. interACT distributed the guide to hospitals nationwide in late 2018.
