Trans Program

Our Transgender Program began in 2016 as a dream of Dana Galante, the parent of a trans child. She met weekly with youth, parents, and held space for trans and nonbinary individuals. Now, our program is trans-led and run continuing to support our transgender and gender-expansive community with peer support, resources, and events.
