About TransCentralPA


What We Do...

  • TransCentralPA is a Federally recognized 501c3 Non-profit organization dedicated to serving the Transgender community in and around Central Pennsylvania.

  • We host monthly meetings to provide a safe and nurturing place for members and guests to meet together to better understand, accept and take pride & joy in their Transgendered lives.

  • We plan and organize outings and events where our members and guests can feel safe.

  • We host the Keystone Conference, the largest Transgender conference in the mid-Atlantic region.  Our 2010 conference had 250 attendees.

  • We participate with and support other TLGBQ activities and organizations.

  • We organize the TransCentralPA Speaker Series, sponsoring and hosting prominent Transgender leaders, doctors and organizations in the Central Pennsylvania area.

  • We educate the public by providing guest speakers, brochures and material to businesses, education institutions and other organizations.

  • We maintain an informative website that lists various Transgender resources, activities, events, and conferences as well as local Trans-friendly businesses and services.

  • We work with other Trans-supportive organizations to coordinate and clarify laws and policies affecting the Transgender community in Pennsylvania.

Come Visit Us
Are you Transgendered or are you a friend or family member of someone who is transgendered and would like more information?  Are you just emerging from the proverbial closet and feeling nervous or self-conscious?

Well, our goal is to provide a meaningful and enjoyable opportunity to feel comfortable with yourself and loved ones. If this is your first time, being nervous is expected and we promise to do all we can to help alleviate your anxiety. We guarantee you’ll develop honest and true friendships faster than you every have in your life. We all have known at one point the anxiety of keeping this ‘secret.’ Share yours and let go of that toxic shame and guilt! There is a lot to digest both educationally and emotionally!

Being out for your first time can be exhilarating, but will also lead to a number of profound emotions, feelings, thoughts and questions that you’ll want to remember and reflect upon when you have more time. You may want to consider keeping a journal to jot down your thoughts and feelings.

Membership in TransCentralPA is only $25 a year, that's it.  We don't charge monthly meeting fees.  In fact, we don't even charge non-members, visitors and guests a fee to attend our monthly meetings (although donations are always accepted).  We don't want anyone to feel that they cannot attend our meetings simply because of money.  So please come join us. 

If you are looking for a hotel to stay at, we have negotiated a special reduced rate at the Red Roof Inn - South in Harrisburg.  See the ad to the right for more information.
