Louisiana Trans Advocates

Our Impact

We're more than just a transgender rights organization. We're a grassroots force of nature, deeply rooted in the communities we serve. Our leadership is cultivated from our social support groups, which are some trans people's only opportunity each month to be themselves. We're an organization for trans people, by trans people, and we believe that every single trans person in our state can contribute to the movement for trans liberation. 

Since our founding in 2011, we've been a consistent resource for transgender and gender nonconforming Louisianans, whether they needed referrals for providers, support, or an advocate to help them with their school or employer. 

We've held over 800 monthly support meetings in cities throughout Louisiana, including Baton Rouge, New Orleans, Shreveport, Lafayette, Lake Charles, and Monroe.

Between our monthly meetings and our online support space, over 3,500 Louisianans who consider themselves members of Louisiana Trans Advocates, and we're growing every day.
