The Internet has allowed crossdressers from across the world to take the first step out the closet without leaving the house. There are so many resources and communities available online that even the most timid transgender need not live a life alone in fear. If you’re new to the transgender community I highly recommend you look around the site, you can find an overview of transgender resources here.
Yet humans are naturally social creatures. Even with all the information available online and friends just a facebook away we long for the comfort and companionship of others. Others who understand us, others who love us, and others who will give us support through our crossdressing journey.
Crossdressing Support…Please?
I’m often asked in email for details on local clubs that support crossdressers. The Tri-Ess chapter list is usually a great place to start, but Tri-Ess is just one organization. There are many other organizations that do a great job supporting crossdressers, transsexuals and anyone involved in the transgender community.
While I know of a few places in Seattle, I must admit that I’m at a loss for pretty much the rest of the world. Even if I had intimate knowledge of every crossdressing support group in the USA, I’ve heard a rumor that there are actually a lot of people who don’t live here – funny that 🙂
I don’t want any crossdresser to suffer alone because they didn’t have a group to reach out to. I’d like to create a comprehensive resource that includes information about transgender support groups from all around the world. But I can’t do this without your your help!
Share Local Crossdresser Support Groups
Please send me details about any crossdresser support groups you know about by email to vanessalaw@crossdresserheaven.com
Within a few weeks I’ll devote a section of Crossdresser Heaven specifically to helping you find local crossdresser support groups in your area. Please only send me groups that offer support in person, whether it’s meetings, outings or other support activities. And include:
- Name of the group
- City, State and Country where they meet
- Website address (if available)
- Contact name and number
- Any other notes that would be helpful (e.g. if the group is dedicated to supporting wives of crossdressers)
Thank you for helping a sister reach out and find acceptance. I look forward to hearing from you.

Excellent idea Vanessa, and I guess better a little late than not at all. It should enhance your site, and hopefully you will collect a lot of good information. I found the event I went to (BatB) on a couple of sites, but there doesn’t seem to be a lot of other information about smaller or more localized meetings. It seems to filter through support groups, word of mouth or email, but doesn’t get out beyond that. I’ll share anything else I come across.
Keep up the good work, as always, JamieGhee
Thanks JamieGhee,
As a challenge to all the folks living in the US and Europe – the first reply I received was for a crossdressing club in Brazil – send me info on any local crossdressing clubs you know about 🙂
There’s a link in the Roses wiki to various but mostly UK based groups. I hope that helps!

I am on the hunt for a group in the Albuquerque NM area. I am new to the trasgender life and have issues at home; my wife(although she is a wonderful lady) cant seem to get her mind around me wanting to cross dress. She is not totally against it since she will come shoping with me and help me choose outfits; however she doesnt want to see me dressed. I am more comfortable when dressed than I am as a male; despite having tried to talk to her and reassure her that she is not going to loose me,… Read more »

Huggggggggggggggs,

thanks so much for getting this started! i’m a soon-to-be 35 yo who is still struggling mightily with this. i come from a large family and i don’t ever want them to know. the same goes for most of my friends, though i think i could live with anyone who didn’t want to be my friend because of it, so i guess it’s mainly the family issue. i often feel trapped and endure much self loathing over it, so your effort to organize this is *really* appreciated!
with love,
amy
