Community events and support
A weeklong celebration in March featuring fun events for all ages including game night, a party, concert, art show, and more, in honor of Transgender Day of Visibility.
The solemn and powerful event, held yearly on (or near) November 20th, honoring the members of our community in the US that we've lost to violence and self-harm.
Every other Sunday our trans peer group meets to laugh, chat, and address the questions and issues our members are facing. Often followed by a fun dinner out.
Boundless meets the 4th Friday to help partners of transgender individuals navigate the unique challenges and celebrate joy in gender expansive relationships.
