What we’re about
TransGender San Francisco, TGSF.org , is a support and social group for the San Francisco Bay Area transgender and gender-non-conforming/gender-variant community.
Please send email directly to outreach@tgsf.org because messages via Meetup are not checked often, and sometimes, frankly, get completely lost.

SAVE THE DATE! November 20
For November we meet at TDoR (Transgender Day of Remembrance). The plans are being discussed. All the details will be at http://tdorsf.org/ as soon as they are available. But, here are the usual details:
- 5:00 pm Rally in front of SF City Hall
- 6:00 pm candlelight memorial March from City Hall to the venue
- 7:00 pm - 9:00pm Memorial at the venue (last year it was at the LGBT Center, so i'm leaving that until i get updated information).
Please come and bring your friends... or have them join with their local TDoR event, which are happening all over the world.
MISSION of TDoR San Francisco:
The San Francisco Transgender Day of Remembrance (SF TDoR) is an annual community-driven event whose mission is to provide a safe and accessible opportunity for trans and gender non-conforming communities, individuals and their allies to memorialize lives lost to transphobia. This global effort promotes visibility of the many murders and raises awareness around the intersectionality of the injustices our community suffers. It is our intention that our ceremony brings awareness and healing to the community, acts as a "Call to Action to End Transphobia", and celebrates each other in our determination to live our authentic lives.
Remembering victims of murders makes us sad. Hopefully, this event will inspire us to work for the end of, at least, this form of prejudice.

Our usual message ->We are currently meeting in person! But, remember that there are still laws that we’ll follow. When we get together, feel free to continue to wear masks (i will), and if that’s part of the rules at the time, then we’ll all wear them!
TGSF usually has an End of Month dinner/gathering on the last Thursday of each month, except:
- March, we attend TDoV (Transgender Day of Visibility) - http://TDoV.org/
- June, we attend Trans March - http://TransMarch.org/
- November 20, we attend TDoR (Transgender Day of Remembrance) - http://TDoRSF.org/
- December, we'll meet before the traditional winter holidays – Details to be announced.
- If another trans/gnc-related event is important to support, it will be substituted for that month's gathering.We try to keep the Meetup https://www.meetup.com/TGSF-Transgender-San-Francisco/ , and Facebook https://www.facebook.com/GenderSF/ pages up to date, but we need volunteers to do Social Media!
Please don't use Meetup, Facebook, or other sites to contact TGSF. The best way to contact us is through email, info@TGSF.org .
(Yes, the website, TGSF.org, is still dead, but email is still working. I hope to have some ideas on how to fix it "soon".)Volunteers are always needed! Please contact us via info@tgsf.org .
