PFLAG-Hartford
PFLAG is the first and largest organization for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, non-binary, questioning, and queer+ people, their parents and families, and allies. The Connecticut chapter meets twice a month via Zoom - every 3rd Wednesday 6:30-8:00pm (Hartford) and every 1st Tuesday 6:30-8:00pm (Manchester).

For partners/spouses
The SPOT
A free monthly support group exclusively for spouses and partners of trans folx. Being partnered or married to someone who identifies as transgender or gender questioning brings its own unique set of experiences. Questions, concerns, joys, excitement, and more can arise, and it seems like no one around you understand. This is a place to safely speak your mind, get support, and get answers to questions about how others are navigating this experience.
For extended family members
