The Intersex Society of North America, based in Rohnert Park, CA, was a pioneering organization that played a crucial role in advocating for the rights and well-being of intersex individuals. Founded by Cheryl Chase, the society worked tirelessly to challenge medical norms and promote a patient-centered approach to intersex treatment. Through their research, educational initiatives, and collaboration with medical professionals, the Intersex Society of North America made significant contributions to the understanding and acceptance of intersexuality.
Although the society closed its doors in 2008, its legacy lives on through interACT Advocates for Intersex Youth, which continues the important work of supporting intersex individuals and raising awareness about their unique needs. The Intersex Society of North America's website, now preserved as a historical archive, remains a valuable resource for those seeking information about intersex issues and connecting with intersex advocates.
