Thank You for coming to our panel last night! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
For being present with us to have a discussion about trans youth rights in sports. As we await a decision from SCOTUS, we must remember to take care of ourselves and each other. These decisions will have an impact but we can never forget that we can make an impact too. Our very existence, as trans people, is a statement to those who think we shouldn't exist, especially trans youth in sports. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
Special thanks to and for helping us make this happen. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Mobilizing for mental health

The Chicago Therapy Collective (CTC) was born from the experiences of q***r therapists and their intimate awareness that the struggles of q***r folks, especially transgender/gender non-conforming (T/GNC) folks and TQPOC (Trans and Q***r People of Color), are a result of systemic, intersecting injustices that need to be addressed outside of therapy and within the community.

CTC is now comprised of a network of community organizers, artists, therapists, educators, business leaders and more striving to address these injustices and lift up our most marginalized siblings by mobilizing to create safe, just, and inclusive Chicago neighborhoods through art, education, and advocacy initiatives.
