We’ve done our best to collect information for TGNC-affirming providers across the state. We hope you can find someone to fit your needs. If you have knowledge of a provider not currently on this list, please email us so we can get them added. Likewise, should you have a negative experience with one of the providers listed, please share it with us, so that we can make any necessary adjustments. If you are a provider who is interested in being on this list, please send us the relevant information, as well as a short summary of your experience with TGNC clients.

The 2015 U.S. Transgender Survey (USTS) is the largest survey examining the experiences of transgender people in the United States, with 27,715 respondents. Conducted in the summer of 2015 by the National Center for Transgender Equality, the USTS was an anonymous, online survey for transgender adults (18 and older) in the United States, available in English and Spanish. The report of the 2015 USTS provides a detailed look at the experiences of transgender people across a wide range of categories, such as education, employment, family life, health, housing, and interactions with the criminal justice system.
