QUICK LINKS

RESOURCE NAVIGATION

TransPonder has a Resource Navigator to help folks access services, resources, and programs, both at TransPonder and through other organizations.

Our Resource Navigator can help you access free gender-affirming products, support you through the legal ID name change process, help you access free hormone injection supplies, and more.

PEER SUPPORT

Our peers are solid advocates and help support community members’ emotional health and wellness, as well as their self-management of social and health challenges. Peers can also provide support during major transitions in life.

MENTAL HEALTH THERAPY

We offer culturally competent, affirming mental healthcare for the LGBTQIA2S+ community, including individual therapy, access to gender-affirming surgery support letters, therapy groups, and more.

HARM REDUCTION

As a part of our partnership with HIV Alliance and The Lavender Network, we offer harm reduction supplies, including needles, syringes, alcohol wipes, sharps containers, Narcan (nasal Naloxone), and more.
