TDLEF: Trans Defense, Legal and Education Fund: Organization in NYC that helps trans individuals, for free, with name change (you have to pay for the copies of the name change and paper publishing only)

GIP: Gender Identity Project: Run out of the LGBTQ Center in NYC, they provide resources and support groups (free and no intake requirement; just respect the rules)

Callen-Lorde LGBTQ Health Center: provides trans friendly medical care and the HOTTs program for young trans individuals (whether they have a home or not).

Copied and bookmarked, thanks. I'm aiming to start T in January. Glad to see non-discrimination laws here in Atlanta.

Hey,

Does any of you guys know of a good doctor in or near Norwood Mass. My friend is looking for a trans friendly doctor. He's in transition right now and his doctor is not very helpful or understanding.

Thanks
OB

Hey Organic!

I don't personally know of any doctors in MA, but here is a link that might help your friend. He will need to click on the Resources tab for a list of health care providers.

Trans-spectrum Hawaii

Trans-Spectrum Hawaii is a group that provides information, support, resources, networking, and a safe space for social activities in Hawaii for individuals who were assigned “female” at birth, but identify with belonging somewhere on the transgender spectrum.

Such self-identifications within this gender spectrum may include, but are not limited to: FTMs, FTXs/FTNFs, transsexual men, transmen, tranny boys, bois, studs, butches, genderqueers, intersex individuals, other transgender/gender-variant guys, or gender-questioning guys (whether transitioning or not). We also welcome their partners, family, and friends (SOFFAs).

Email for contact information: trans-spectrumhawaii@yahoogroups.com
