Transgender Resources

Transgender people have been included in the national PFLAG’s support network for more than 10 years.
Part of our mission at PFLAG of Greater Worcester is to educate our members and allies about transgender issues – a subject foreign to many, including those parents and significant others surprised by the coming out of a loved one as transgender.  We have transgender members and parents on our PFLAG board to help you with advice and resources. While transgender people have similar needs with regard to support in coming out, education and advocacy as do gay, lesbian and bisexual people, there are some basic differences that might require family and friends to step beyond their comfort levels.
You can learn more about these differences here.
Before and during the process of transitioning, however, many difficulties can arise. Transgender people are often denied use of appropriate restroom facilities. They are usually denied participation in sports based on their correct gender. And they are too often subjected to cruel harassment and violence at the hands of others.
