TransFamily Alliance

Virtual Open House

A free, 90-minute look at how we support parents and caregivers of transgender, nonbinary and gender expansive youth, for mental health professionals.

January 8 / 9 / 11

When the parent of a trans kid is sitting across from you, overwhelmed, where do they go for support of their own? The TransFamily Alliance was built to answer that question. Parents and caregivers get coaching, education and a community of other parents who understand, so their kid’s therapy can stay their kid’s therapy.

This January, we’re opening our doors to clinicians. Join Dr. Shawn V. Giammattei and the TFA team for an inside look at what we offer and how we work, and bring your questions. Then decide for yourself whether TFA is right for the families you serve.
