Geared towards families of trans, nonbinary, gender-expansive, and questioning youth as well as youth who identify as trans, nonbinary, gender-expansive, or in a questioning period in their gender journeys, looking for support with our team. Our program offerings are family and person-centered, so each session is different depending on that individual’s / family's goals and needs.
Our One 2 One program aims to support individuals and families in a variety of ways:
PALs for Youth -
Youth meet in-person (or virtually) with a Possibility Adult Leader (PAL), a trans, nonbinary, or gender expansive identified adult, and engage in creative and fun activities while processing personal narratives. For example, developing an artistic process like writing poetry or composing a song, engaging in dance and movement, attending a museum exhibition, thrift shopping for gender-affirming attire, playing sports, and much more! All centering the youth individual’s passions and joy in confidential and easy-going settings.

Navigators for Caregivers/Family Members -
Our individualized support for adult caregivers and family members are one-hour sessions (virtual) with our Navigators.
Support can include helping to craft gender transition plans for school; family planning; child engagement activities to affirm child's gender; strategizing how to talk with extended family; supporting individual transition and gender journeys; and much more! Navigators aim to meet the needs and goals of family members by offering a space to ask questions, connect to resources, and gain psycho-education in a supportive environment.
