The Coastal Bend Pride Center recognizes that using a chest binder is a great way for transgender and other gender non-conforming individuals to ease their anxiety and gender dysphoria. It is important to note that following proper binding practice is essential for your comfort and your health in order to achieve the best possible binding experience. The Pride Center is pleased to assist with questions regarding a binder purchase, as well as provide a free binder to individuals that cannot afford or access one. We order binders as needed.
If you would like to contribute to this program, we welcome monetary donations as well as binder donations. Since binders are undergarments, we prefer all items to be donated as new. However, we know that binders are unique to each person’s chest size, so a $25 donation would be very helpful and appreciated if you would like to donate the cost for purchase.
Binders can also be ordered for free through the following websites below if buying one is cost prohibitive. These programs are intended to help transgender individuals who otherwise cannot afford or access a binder. We ask that you consider your access before applying.
gc2b provides “accessible, comfortable, and safe binding options designed by trans people.” Binders are available in both half and full length.
Genderbands offers free chest binders, as well as educational resources for proper use, for those who are low on funds, and identify somewhere on the transgender spectrum.
*This program is made possible by donations and sponsors. If you can support this program, please contact us at info@cbpridecenter.org. Binders are only available as funds for them are available.

🌈 Thank You, Corpus Christi! 🌈
It was wonderful to see so many of people of the LGBTQ+ community and our allies come out and speak in support of keeping books about diversity and inclusion in our public libraries. Your presence and voices at the city hall meeting on Tuesday were powerful and essential.
If you were unaware, the Corpus Christi Library Board has formed a subcommittee that is trying to change the Library Collection Development Policy. Some of the women on the board and subcommittee are known to be members of the Moms for Liberty & Citizens Defending Freedom, two organizations who have goals to rid public entities of DEI protections and silence LGBTQ+ and diverse voices.
Tuesday, a group of concerned citizens went to the Corpus Christi City Council meeting to raise awareness and share our concerns regarding this subcommittee. Now, we continue to watch the Library Board to see what actions they take and we will stay in touch with our local elected officials so they can help us with our concerns.
Together, we will continue to advocate for a library collection that represents and respects everyone. Thank you for your unwavering support and commitment to inclusion and diversity!
