TRANS & GENDER-EXPANSIVE PROGRAMS
Rocky Mountain Equality (RMEQ) serves transgender, gender expansive, and questioning adults and youth ages 13+. Learn more about our youth program.
We have bus passes available for folks who need assistance with transportation to get to and from our transgender programming. If you need support with this, please reach out to Theo (he/they).
While we don’t know yet what will happen, concerns that federal protections and rights that currently exist for transgender people may be eroded or federal legislation and policies that are harmful to trans people being implemented are valid.
Colorado has several laws and policies to protect the rights of trans individuals, particularly in the areas of employment, housing, public accommodations, and healthcare. These protections often include references to "gender identity" and "gender expression" and are reinforced through various state and local policies.

GENDER SUPPORT GROUPS
Rocky Mountain Equality offers support groups for transgender and nonbinary people, as well as their partners and families. Peer-support groups serve as a source of understanding, strength, and reflection for many community members, but they are not therapy.
Attending our groups is free, and we have trained, dedicated transgender facilitators.

CTAC informs RMEQ’s positions, statements, and advocacy priorities, and engages in legislative testimony, public education, and community outreach. CTAC membership includes experienced volunteers who identify transgender, non-binary, Two-Spirit, intersex, and/or gender expansive.
