The Center for Trans Futures
The Center for Trans Futures is a trans led nonprofit based in Richmond, Virginia. We exist to build durable community infrastructure for trans people through education, public health, mutual support, and material access.
Our work is grounded in a simple principle: Trans people are the experts on our own lives. When trans people lead the design, governance, and delivery of programs, outcomes improve. Safety improves. Dignity improves. Sustainability improves.
We operate with clear boundaries. Our default is trans-centered, trans-governed spaces. This is not about exclusion for its own sake, but about self-determination, accountability, and building systems that actually work for our community.
What we focus on
-
Housing navigation and material support
-
Education and public health programming
-
Relational ethics, consent, and communication that affirms polyamory and non-monogamy and kink

Sober and safer community spaces
-
Practical tools for navigating institutions
