Helping the Trans community transcend barriers in Grand Rapids, MI.

A great (and free) opportunity for Trans, Nonbinary, and Gender Expansive folks!

Our 2nd "Update!" workshop shifted online, helping 18 local Trans folks embark on legal name changes! We're thrilled to be a part of their journey. Shout-out to our partnering attorney @GinnyMikita for her tireless advocacy. Needless to say, we're incredibly jazzed. 🎇


In our first year of the Update! Document Change Program we were able to walk 16 Trans people through updating their names on legal documents, awarding $1000 in micro-grants to pay for the process. Help us fund even more document updates for #GiveOUTDay! GRTransFoundation.org/donate
