Our Mission
Transform has a simple goal: Provide free wardrobes, head to toe, for transgender and gender non conforming youth.
Why? Because affirming care is the best way to protect transgender youth. Having a safe space and community center available gives new opportunities for LGBTQ+ youth to make new friends and make a difference in their community. Our recent focus has been expanding our programming to offer community groups and social events. We are passionate about connecting with young people in need and their families to give as much support to vulnerable youth as possible.
It’s so much more than just clothes. When one of our clients tries a new item on, and gets to feel more comfortable and joyful in their own skin, that is the transformation we are making.
Transform is something that has honestly changed my life. When we found out about Transform I had just come out at school and to family. It honestly made me feel so much more validated and accepted in life and the community. It has since been the reason that I am healthy and functional mental health wise. Volunteering at this organization has become my passion and I don’t know where I’d be without transform.
