250+ Trans Justice Organizations in the United States and Around the World
250+ Trans Justice Organizations in the United States and Around the World
In March 2023, I compiled this crowdsourced list of organizations, mutual aid funds, and community groups focused on trans rights, mostly in the United States.
It grew out of the #Trans Rights Readathon, a decentralized fundraising effort created by author Sim Kern. In addition to posts shared using the #TransRightsReadathon hashtag, the information Sim gathered from participants (shared with me anonymously), and my own research, I gathered information from Airin Yung (this post in particular is hugely informative) and Schuyler Bailar (various instagram posts).
The majority of these organizations are trans-led and trans-focused, but some of them serve the broader LGBTQIA+ community. In those cases, I did my best to only include organizations that provide explicit services for trans and gender nonconforming people.
This is not a comprehensive list of trans resources. Many of the organizations linked in the document provide much more extensive resources lists! This list is simply a tool for anyone looking to donate money to people and organizations working to protect trans rights, which are currently under violent attack.
All text in quotes comes directly from each organization's website.
I am a cis queer person. If you feel inclined to thank me for this work, please donate to one of the listed organizations instead.
How to Submit an Organization/Fundraiser
Know of an organization, mutual aid fund, fundraiser, or community group working to protect trans rights? I’d love to add it to the list! Please use this form to submit.
During the #TransRightsReadathon, lots of people donated to individual fundraisers for trans folks and local mutual aid funds. I didn’t feel comfortable sharing these fundraisers without explicit permission, but if you’re running one, I’d love to add it! Use this form to submit.
This is a living document that I will continue updating throughout the year.
Let’s give money to trans folks and organizations, now and always. Here’s the list!
