We’re excited to highlight the T.R.A.N.S. Mentorship Program, a transformative virtual service by Trans Parent Life Conversations, specifically designed to support transgender and nonbinary individuals and their families. This impactful program connects participants with mentors who offer both personal experience and professional guidance to foster resilience, authenticity, and advocacy. Trans Parent founder Dr. Lee will be joining us on the QueerCME podcast this November to share their journey and vision for the program—don’t miss it!

Why T.R.A.N.S. Mentorship?

Transgender and nonbinary individuals—especially youth—experience intense challenges, from societal stigma to family rejection and trauma. The T.R.A.N.S. Mentorship Program was created as a lifeline of support, a place where trans and nonbinary people (ages 14+) and their family members can feel seen, supported, and celebrated. This virtual space connects mentees with mentors who understand their journeys firsthand, offering both empathy and practical tools to help them navigate complex life experiences.

With a focus on representation and REALationships, the T.R.A.N.S. program is built on the power of shared experience. Mentors serve as examples of resilience and success, inspiring mentees to thrive amid adversity and encouraging family members to cultivate strong, healthy connections with their gender-diverse loved ones.

Who We Serve

Our program provides targeted support for:

• Transgender and Nonbinary Youth and Adults (ages 14+)
• Family Members of Gender-Diverse Individuals

For transgender and nonbinary individuals, the T.R.A.N.S. Mentorship Program offers both one-on-one mentorship and group support, providing safe spaces to discuss challenges, celebrate achievements, and gain tools to build resilience. Mentees learn to develop their unique voices and feel empowered to navigate societal obstacles confidently and authentically.

For family members, the program offers a compassionate environment to explore their own journey of learning, acceptance, and advocacy. With sessions focused on education, coping strategies, and healthy communication, families learn how to foster meaningful, supportive relationships with their loved ones, transforming challenges into deeper bonds.

The T.R.A.N.S. Mentorship Program offers a range of virtual support services to meet diverse needs, including:

• One-on-One Mentorship Sessions: Personalized, goal-driven mentorship for individuals.
