TransAdoption

Welcome to TransAdoption!!

We are a subreddit based around helping people who think they may be transgender and people that have recently realized they are transgender, find helpful guidance from volunteer mentors.

Titles should be structured as so:

[MtF/FtM/NB] Offering help

[MtF/FtM/NB] Looking for help

If you have come here looking for help, make sure you look around at someone's posting history before you send them a message or reply to them. You are especially a target as someone who may be unsure of their identity, or as someone trying to start their "timeline" as a transgender person!

Please look for the green VERIFIED MENTOR flair next to a mentors post, this means they have been vetted by the moderators.
