Who we are and what we do

We’re a small but mighty staff team of three, supported over the years by more than 60 dedicated volunteers. Together, we make sure no trans person faces the world alone.

TACT (Trans Advocacy and Care Team) is the only virtual network providing free, confidential peer counseling, support groups, and resource navigation for trans people across the U.S.

When when trans people are supported and have access to the resources they need, they can thrive—and in doing so, help build a better world for all.

As trans folks ourselves, we’re rewriting the narratives pushed by anti-trans extremists. We know that being trans is beautiful—that trans joy is possible for every trans person.

Why this moment matters

Trans communities are in crisis. Anti-trans rhetoric and policies are escalating every day, hitting hardest in the South and Midwest, where safety and well-being are increasingly at risk.

We’re seeing unprecedented demand for our services. More trans people than ever are reaching out, seeking peer support that affirms their existence, celebrates their identity, and reminds them they are cherished.

Right now, 100+ trans adults are on our waitlist to join our support groups or receive 1-on-1 peer counseling—but our grant funding has fallen short this year.

Did you know?  Nonprofits serving transgender communities only receive 3¢ out of every $100 granted by all U.S. foundations.

That's why individual donations are what makes TACT's work possible—and are the force that's allowed us to remain a sanctuary for trans adults since 2021.

Without your help, we can’t meet the urgent needs of our community. Your support will sustain this vital safety net and keep TACT a sanctuary for trans people when they need it most—right now.
