Changing your Name
For step-by-step instructions on changing your name, visit the Colorado Name Project.
Correcting your Gender Marker
As you update your IDs, be aware that each document must be updated individually; making changes to one document, such as your birth certificate or state ID, will not carry over changes to any other document, such as a passport or social security card.
For step-by-step instructions on the process of updating your Gender Marker on each identity document, visit the Colorado Name Project.
Pro tip: The Colorado Name Change Project suggests updating federal ID documents first, then state ID
documents.
Other Organizations
The organizations that are listed below do not have an established partnership with the International Rescue Committee.
Health and Gender affirming care access: Having a healthcare provider that understands your unique healthcare needs impacts your quality of care and how likely you are to return for continued care. It can be especially challenging for LGBTQ+ individuals to find providers who are adequately trained in LGBTQ+ health needs. When we surveyed our community in 2018, One Colorado asked LGBTQ+ Coloradans, “What qualities make for a competent provider?” Across the state, you shared with us that utilizing an individual's correct pronouns, addressing transgender specific health needs, and having LGBTQ+ inclusive intake forms and materials were important signs that indicate to our community we are with a safe and competent provider.
