About US

Getting your family to understand your gender identity can be a long, complicated, and stressful process. Sometimes families feel alone when a family member comes out as transgender, and don't know how to be supportive and affirming. 

Transforming Families is a community where transgender, gender non-conforming, and questioning youth and their families come together to support each other in a safe, welcoming space. At our monthly gatherings, separate breakout groups for parents, kids, siblings, and teens provide the opportunity to meet and learn from other people traveling the same path. 

Families meet other families to share, talk, and hang out. We're here to listen to each other's stories, exchange resources, build community, and have fun! It's a simple idea that works.

Everyone is welcome. There is a place for you at Transforming Families. Life is a journey, not a destination. We are all learning. 

You are not alone. Meet other gender-creative kids and their families, friends, and allies. Learn more about gender identity and expression in a safe, supportive environment.
