Firefly Mission Statement

Families Igniting Resources and Education For Liberated Youth.

We are FIREFLY -- Families Igniting Resources and Education For Liberated Youth.

We are a community of trans, non-binary and allied youth, families, providers, and organizers dedicated to creating an inclusive space for connection, education, and mutual aid. Our mission is to envision and build a more liberated world for trans and gender-diverse youth--one that ensures access to affirming healthcare, legal advocacy, family and youth empowerment, and community connection. We are gathering for a first annual weekend family conference to foster growth, learning, and celebration for families at every stage of their journey.
