Are you Transgendered or are you a friend or
family member of someone who is transgendered and would like more
information?
Are you just emerging from the proverbial closet and feeling nervous or
self-conscious?
Well, our goal is to provide a meaningful and enjoyable
opportunity to feel comfortable with yourself and loved ones. If this is your first
time, being nervous is expected and we promise to do all we can to help alleviate
your anxiety. We guarantee you’ll develop honest and true friendships
faster than you every have in your life. We all have known at one point
the anxiety of keeping this ‘secret.’ Share yours and let go of that
toxic shame and guilt! There is a lot to digest both educationally and
emotionally!

We meet at the
MCC of the Spirit. Doors open at
approximately 8:00 pm and the meeting begins
at 8:30 pm. General announcements are made
and everyone is invited to introduce
themselves. We then open up the floor
to those who briefly have something to share
with the group followed by social time with
coffee and cookies. Meetings typically
end at about 10:00 to 10:30 pm.
Licensed therapists with experience in
Transgender and relationship issues are
invited to each of our meetings to offer
assistance and encouragement to those
wanting to share their personal struggles
and issues. So if you have been
considering seeing a therapist, you may want
to consider Alexis and Amy. |

Out to dinner in downtown Harrisburg |
Social time after one of our meetings |
Prior to our
meeting, several of us meet for dinner at one
of several restaurants around Harrisburg. The
venue changes each month, so please check the
website (at the bottom of the page) for the
location. Everyone is invited to join
us, but you must
RSVP for dinner because seating maybe limited.
We like to provide
the restaurants with an accurate headcount so they
can accommodate our group and their other patrons as well.
Click here to RSVP.
After the meeting, several of us will
go out 'After Hours' to a local restaurant,
bar or nightclub for some additional social time and
fun. Information on the location of 'After
Hours' is also at the bottom of each of our webpages.
Being out for your first time can be exhilarating,
but will also lead to a number of profound emotions,
feelings, thoughts and questions that you’ll want to
remember and reflect upon when you have more time.
You may want to consider keeping a journal to jot
down your thoughts and feelings.

Asked Questions (FAQs) page for more information.
