TransFamily Support Services (TFSS) is continuing to transform lives across the country by providing critical support, education, and advocacy for transgender, nonbinary, and gender-diverse youth and their families.

At a time when many families are navigating complex challenges, TFSS stands as a trusted, compassionate resource ensuring that no one has to face their journey alone. The bilingual organization  delivers a powerful combination of direct services and systems-level advocacy in both English and Spanish, helping families build resilience, access affirming care, and find community.

Founded on the belief that every young person deserves to be safe, supported, and celebrated, TFSS works closely with families from the earliest stages of self-discovery through every step of transition. Its programs are designed to provide guidance, education, and empowerment — equipping caregivers and youth alike with the tools they need to thrive.

A cornerstone of TFSS’s impact is its robust education and advocacy work. Through trainings, workshops, and outreach, the organization partners with schools, health care providers, and community institutions to foster inclusive environments and expand understanding of gender diversity. Thousands of educators and professionals have already benefited from these programs, helping to create safer and more affirming spaces for youth nationwide.

In addition to its educational initiatives, TFSS provides hands-on support to families offering one-on-one guidance, peer connections, youth programming, and resource navigation. These services not only strengthen individual families but also build a broader network of informed advocates working to protect and uplift transgender and nonbinary communities.
