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.
Adult meetings are a space for parents, guardians, and other family and caregivers.
T(w)een meetings are for trans/non-binary/questioning teens and tweens 11-18, and are facilitated by trans and/or non-binary young adults.
Child meetings provide supervised play time for both trans/non-binary/questioning kids and siblings who are not members of the trans community. Please note that all children must be out of diapers/potty-trained.
