Gender affirming care and safe spaces for the LGBTQIA+ community are essential. Ensuring access requires dedicated spaces and sustained community support.
PHNX Collective
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to restore and expand access to gender affirming care for all ages by raising critical funds to secure a permanent clinic space and to fund gender affirming care and LGBTQIA+ primary care.
Our Story
Silence is death. Action is Life.
In 2025, as threats to gender affirming care for minors continued to mount, hospital systems across the country stopped providing care. Even in Colorado, where that care is legally protected, families were scrambling by early 2026 to find providers who would continue — or start — treatment and accept insurance. In such terrifying times, the last thing these families needed was a financial barrier standing between them and care.
The unease didn't stop there. Threats loomed over adult care, marriage equality, reproductive freedom, and conversion therapy protections. The attacks were broad, coordinated, and ongoing.
Dr. Pearson refused to wait. Partnering with RISE Collective, they launched a private clinic designed to create a sustainable, affirming space for families — with a vision of expanding to serve the entire LGBTQIA+ community and fill the critical gap in Colorado for accessible, LGBTQ-friendly care.
From that partnership, PHNX Collective was born — a 501(c)(3) nonprofit powered by community, dedicated to funding gender affirming care for youth today, building out a permanent LGBTQIA+ Health Center for 2027, and ensuring that no patient is ever turned away
