Hi Sheila & Gayle:

Have you tried reaching out to your local Pride community?

Sometimes they do hide, and for good reason, but there are legitimate Facebook groups and websites that advocate for our LGBTQA+ lives.

Many FB groups where I am have both a public and private page, so requests like yours are more private and reach the right audience. See who’s kind, vocal and plugged-in on those sites, send them a DM and then buy them a coffee.

My network of friends blossomed when I found the courage to reach out, and all it took was one trans woman who connected me with so many others! Now I know where to get a friendly haircut, doctor, coffee, and even a tattoo!

Good Luck!
