What we’re about
The Rehoboth TransLiance is a social group for all transgender people, cross dressers, bi-gender, transsexuals, their partners, family, allies and friends to network, learn, grow, and come together socially in safe, trans friendly venues. So whatever interests or needs that you have as a trans person, you should be able to find it in joining us here. This site was designed and founded for those seeking gender confirmation and open to all who have a supporting interest in our community. We welcome all who have n interest in protecting, understanding and supporting our interests.
We seek a safe, mutually supportive, and non political atmosphere for shopping, dining, dancing, educational, intellectual and other social pursuits. The broad range of social and intellectual events are wonderful opportunities to have fun, socialize, build friendships, share, explore, expand, and celebrate our gender together in safe and enjoyable settings.
It is also an opportunity to discover and integrate your feminine/masculine side, and learn about cross dressing, being bi-gender, transgender, gender queer or transsexual lifestyles. Our goal is to provide support through social interaction and a place where therapist and others would recommend for social development. It is our orientation that the more often we come out and socialize together, the more comfortable and confident we become in integrating these parts of our selves.
As members, you can post events that you are going to, inviting others to join with you. Or post trans related events from other social and support groups.
Note that our events are for those who are passable and not so passable, as we all share something precious together in the gender continuum. Members also offer makeovers and support in learning to dress as a woman or man.
Our group is designed to be the one place to go to find out all of the trans activities in the Rehoboth area.
Membership is free as well as the postings.
Lastly, on our site we offer a community resource of this week’s happenings, members’ experiences, tips, insights, questions, and reviews in areas of interest in our local trans community. Posts go out to all members to keep abreast.
You can check out all of the topics that we cover. They are located in our "Message Boards" listed under "Discussions" along the top banner.
Be sure to add your experiences, insights, tips, and questions.
We hope you can join us!

The Salisbury University Transgender Interprofessional Care Team is coming to Lewes Library November 4th at 7 pm. They will be sharing the results of a recent study. We will also be giving a synopsis of our upcoming symposium November 20th at Salisbury University. https://hub.salisbury.edu/sutoday/2024/09/13/second-annual-transgender-care-and-experience-symposium featuring Keynote speaker Noah Duckett, LCSW Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in Gender Affirming Care with Planned Parenthood "This SU program is Approved by the National Association of Social Workers (Approval # 886918275-3866) for 4 continuing education contact hours." After the symposium TransLiance will lead us in their 8th annual Transgender Day of Remembrance TDOR vigil for all those people who did not fit their birth assignment and were brutally murdered this year. Please join us for an engaging and meaningful event where you’ll dive deep into gender-affirming care and critically examine the effects of anti-trans legislation.
Michèle M. Schlehofer, PhD, Salisbury University and Daniel Green BASW Program Director, Assistant Professor / Social Work will be here to tell us about the work that they have been doing. Michèle and associates recently submitted in the APA’s Call for papers: American trans psychology amid anti-transgender legislation “American psychologists have complex histories with trans individuals, including pathologization of trans identities and coercive research practices, with several professional organizations recently apologizing for their historical role in gender identity change efforts. At the same time, psychologists have also contributed enormously to the growth of knowledge about the mental and behavioral health needs of this population, including the causes and consequences of health disparities among trans people; gender-affirming therapeutic approaches when engaging in consultation, assessment, and treatment of trans people; and trans people’s experiences of well-being, thriving, and joy. Psychologists have documented the vulnerabilities and strengths of trans individuals facing disparate rates of violent victimization, discrimination, and marginalization.”
We will also hear from Kathy Carpenter Brown. The Zwaanendael Museum in Lewes, Delaware, Exhibit: “Shared Truths*,*” exploring the people who witness, shape and record Delaware history. The first person featured in this exhibition, Kathy Carpenter, has been advocating for transgender rights and community acceptance throughout her life. As the Delaware Division of Historical and Cultural Affairs’ Curator of Collections, Elizabeth Coulter participates in developing and installing exhibitions, developing and presenting educational programs, providing access to the collections, collaborating with partnering organizations and expanding the profile and use of the collections.
