About Transgender Law Center

Transgender Law Center is the largest national, trans-led organization working to set all people free. We champion the right of all transgender and gender-nonconforming people to make their own choices and live freely, safely, and authentically.

Prioritizing BIPOC, disabled, and HIV+ communities, we advance community-driven strategies that harness trans knowledge, power, and joy to ensure that we all not only survive but thrive at all ages and phases of life.

We pursue a multidisciplinary approach to advocacy, including nationwide impact litigation, policy advocacy, public education, and direct services through our legal helpdesk and prison mail program.

Our legal and policy work encompasses a broad range of issues facing transgender people across the country, with a current focus on cases combatting the criminalization of transgender.
