Clinics on the move in TTT's health: the path to materialization of SUS among transvestites, transsexuals and transgendered

The movement of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transvestites, transsexuals and transgendered (LGBTTT) increased visibility of the topic of homosexuality and the multiplicity of expressions and gender identities in Brazil. Despite having advances, as the formalization of government programs and the increase of public debate, the challenges remain. The problematic of health in the TTT universe is approached, emphasizing the limited right to health and access to health actions and services, prejudice and discrimination suffered by the inadequacy of professional and technological resources used. Thus, it emphasizes the peripatetic clinic to contribute to the realization of the right to health.
