Thank You for Giving BIG! 

Thanks to you, we hit our day-long 2018 GiveBIG goal of $45,000!  EXACTLY!

With a flurry of late-night donors, and a very last-minute donor offering to close the remaining gap of $175, we pulled it off just under the buzzer!

Thank you for making it possible to continue doing what we do best - supporting and strengthening families. Your donation not only saves lives but helps show the rest of the world that the support and celebration of trans children is indeed a VERY DOABLE THING!

What We Do

Family Support

There is a lot for parents and caregivers to figure out when a child is gender-diverse. Since 2008, Gender Diversity has been hosting regular support groups across the Puget Sound. With trained facilitators, and adjoining kids’ activities, we lead weekly gatherings for parents and families. All new attendees must complete a pre-screening intake call with our Parent Services staff.

Conferences

Now in Los Angeles and Seattle! Gender Odyssey, founded in 2001, is an international conference focused on the needs and interests of trans and gender diverse people, their loved ones, and professionals who serve them. Packed with thought-provoking workshops, professional training opportunities, networking, and social events, this one-of-a-kind annual gathering attracts people from all over the world for an uplifting weekend of skills sharing and community.

Education and Training

Our staff has been providing school faculty and staff trainings for over a decade. We’ve worked with kids, parents, PTAs, lawyers, administrators, medical staff, churches, and HR departments across the country create inclusive, safe environments.
