The Black Trans Advocacy Conference Attendee Scholarship & Fundrising Program is created to help provide transgender people in minority communities nationwide, access to the conference educational and empowerment experience. The scholarship program provides an opportunity for trans people to not only participate in an educational program but to also connect local communities with our mission of social equality.

As always, we are striving to include as many people as possible in the conference. We know that many individuals cannot afford the expense of traveling to the conference, yet it is vitally important that a conference of this focus be reached.  Check Out the available fundraiser and scholarship opportunities below.
