  • Fund your move to OregonThe moves that work start with a financial floor. Around $3,000 is the number WERQ TOGETHER has seen hold across the moves it has supported: enough for move costs, your first month of housing, and a buffer until your first paycheck. This path walks you through knowing your number, building savings, fundraising the gap, and the trans-specific emergency funds that can give you a boost.
  • Getting back on your feet after release from prison or jailThe first few weeks after release are the hardest. This path covers what to prioritize: day one (check-in, housing, phone), first week (ID, OHP, SNAP), and the first month (reentry navigation, health, and voting rights). Trans-specific resources and legal protections are flagged throughout.
