Cathy:
Glad to have you with us and I hope that being here will be helpful as your journey continues.
With the goal of meeting people in the community, I suggest a proactive, multifaceted approach:
- Search the member database for members who live in your area. Click on Social in the menu and then Member Directory.
- Do a search for transgender resources in you area. I suspect that there are groups as you are part of a major metropolitan area. One of the few upsides to the pandemic is that LGBT centers have been doing social and support groups online. This has alleviated a number of scheduling and logistic issues for people. This may help break the ice for meeting with other groups in person. For many of us, that is quite a hurdle.
- Post on this site.
- Participate in the Chat section.
Putting yourself out there with as many ways possible improves your chances of finding folks in the community to talk to and expands your social circle.
Let us know how it goes!
