Our Leadership

  • We are led by a diverse team of BIPOC LGBTQ+ individuals, and bring a wealth of lived experiences and qualifications to serve the identified population. With strong partnerships and deep community trust, we effectively provide support and resources to our community across all 50 states.

    In addition to the dedicated staff, the Queer Trans Project has a board of members who contribute ideas, promote programs on social media, and provide organizational oversight.  We are a non-hierarchical organization, and all staff and board members contribute to its overall success.
