Help Finnley's Family move to safety

Hello chosen family and friends,

We need your help for the Morris family—Finnley (28), an incredibly compassionate trans man; Artemis (31), a creative and resilient trans woman; their two amazing daughters, Charlie (6) and Ella (7); and Finnley’s sister, Quyana (22). This wonderful family is in a tough spot in Conway, Arkansas, where growing hostility and discrimination have made their lives extremely hard.

Arkansas is one of the worst states to live in if you belong to the LGBTQIA+ community. Trans affirming care has been and continues to be threatened with various initiatives and legislature by the state and states leadership. Though the federal government has countered most of these initiatives, some have remained or were revised with softer wording with the same intent. This couple has experienced everything from refusal of medical care, dismissed from needed work, and even not being able to take their children into a public restroom.

They’re facing daily discrimination, threats, and a lack of support. Access to essential resources like gender-affirming care and safe public spaces is limited, making their lives a constant struggle. Despite their strong bond and commitment to each other, the stress and danger are taking a huge toll. Transphobia in their community even prevents them from accessing their local food bank at times.

Finnley, who had been working hard in a tech job, was recently laid off and has been struggling to find steady work in his small town. Artemis has already went through several food service jobs that end in discrimination. Quyana has proven she is a leader able to be responsible for tasks and teams in sales and food service. The constant fear and lack of stability are making it tough for them to provide the safe, loving environment they deserve.

They’ve identified an area on the West Coast that offers a supportive community and the resources they need to thrive. This move isn’t just about changing their address—it’s about escaping an unsafe environment and finding a place where they can live freely and without fear.

To make this move possible, they urgently need financial support to cover relocation costs like transportation and housing. A plan and a strong budget has been created to help them find their way home. Every bit of help brings them closer to a safer, brighter future.

Please, if you can, contribute whatever you can to help the Morris family start this new chapter and find the safety and acceptance they need. Even sharing our story in your local networks and favorite groups helps. Your support will save and change their lives.

Thanks so much for your kindness and generosity. With community support we can help get the Morris’ home where they will be safe and can finally build their lives and home.
