Our Family & Friends Line provides peer support for friends, partners, family members, and professionals supporting trans loved ones and community members. We trust trans people as the experts in our own lives, and we resource trans people’s support networks to do the same.
To access this service, call our main hotline and ask for our Family & Friends Line. The operator will find out the best time to call you back and you will receive a call back from a Family & Friends operator who has lived experience supporting trans people.
