Transgender Law Center changes law, policy, and attitudes so that all people can live safely, authentically, and free from discrimination regardless of their gender identity or expression.

Transgender Law Center (TLC) is the largest national trans-led organization advocating for a world in which all people are free to define themselves and their futures. Grounded in legal expertise and committed to racial justice, TLC employs a variety of community-driven strategies to keep transgender and gender nonconforming people alive, thriving, and fighting for liberation.

The Legal Information Helpdesk provides basic information about laws and policies that affect transgender people across many areas, including employment, health care, housing, civil rights, immigration, prisoners’ rights, and identity document changes. This serves more as an informational resource than legal advice.

To get in touch with the Transgender Law Center, call (510) 587-969.

They also offer a collect line to folks in prison or detentions at (510)-380-8229

Trans Thrive, which stands for Transgender Resource and Neighborhood Space (Trans), and Transgender Health & Resource Initiative for Vital Empowerment (Thrive) is the new incarnation of the transgender drop-in started by UCSF and transferred to Asian & Pacific Islander Wellness Center.

As part of the SF Community Health Center, Trans Thrive now includes all services provided for the Trans/GNC community at SFCHC. Trans Thrive is more than a drop-in center; it’s services for us, by us.

We aim to create safe spaces, events, and services for the entire trans/GNC community. From case management and medical services (including Primary Care, HRT, and Needle Exchange), to mental health and substance use support, to social groups and special events, to a drop in center (with snacks and refreshments, clothing closet and a computer lab), we have it all!  We are trans services for US, by US. Together, we can get to health, wellness, and equality. Everyone is respected in this space!

Folks who come to the drop-in for the first time are asked to fill out an intake form and meet with a staff member to discuss expectations and the benefits of the drop-in space, which include: a lounge, computer lab, clothing closet, and other amenities.

Every day, there are groups (with food) on various topics. The calendar can be found by clicking on that link, then scrolling to the end of the page.

Trans Student Educational Resources is a youth-led organization dedicated to transforming the educational environment for trans and gender non-conforming students through advocacy and empowerment. Founded in 2011, it is the only national organization led by trans youth.

In addition to our focus on creating a more trans-friendly education system, our mission is to educate the public and teach trans activists how to be effective organizers. We believe that justice for trans and gender nonconforming youth is contingent on an intersectional framework of activism. Ending oppression is a long-term process that can only be achieved through collaborative action.

We speak at conferences, train teachers, collaborate with other advocacy organizations, organize the only national Trans Youth Leadership Summit, support trans-related events, provide leadership training for trans youth, host scholarships for trans students, publish materials about trans education, help create transgender-supportive policies, and promote trans representation in media.

Creators of The Gender Unicorn and many excellent educational infographics and resources!

On the LGBT National Senior Hotline, we provide a confidential safe space where callers of any age can speak about sexual orientation or gender identity/expression issues. This includes coming out issues, relationship concerns, elder abuse, family dynamics, HIV/AIDS anxiety, safer sex information, suicide, and much more.

Sometimes you just need to be heard. We're here. You deserve respect, support, affirmation, and acceptance.

We don't give advice, and we never tell you what you should do. Ultimately, those choices are yours to make, but we are here to help you on your journey. Volunteers taking calls for this hotline identify as LGBTQIA+.

Note: If you do not get through the first time you call, it simply means all volunteers are busy. Please try back in a few minutes.
