I Think I Might Be Trans:

Links on this page are specific to transgender related resources.

It's common for people who think they might be dealing with transgender issues or know someone dealing with transgender issues to go to the web to get information.  (And there is a ton of information out there.)  Remember, finding things out on the web is not a substitute for seeking help and guidance from a trained professional.  It's hard sometimes finding professionals in a particular geographic area.  You are not alone.  Help can be found.



Parents, teachers, counselors, and other professionals:  Here is a link to a 28 minute program called "Becoming Me."  It features parents talking about their transgender children.  It would be a nice way to complement the book "Gender Born, Gender Made"
CLICK HERE  and scroll down the the lower part of the page.
