% Advice for transgender people, including non-binary and intersex

Transit is a transgender support group. We provide information, and meeting
places online for people to communicate in a safe space.

Our #1 goal is to bring an end to gatekeeping and to bring about equality for
transgender people, in all societies. We believe in progress via education,
effective political campaigning and spreading awareness of our existence.
We believe in freedom; transit is anti-gatekeeping, pro-informed-consent and
pro-DIY.
We have chatrooms, on the freenode IRC network, where all are welcome to join:
