For TG Kids

TransYouth: A place for trans and gender questioning youth. Hosted in part by YouthResource.com. This club is a place for trans youth, between the ages of 12-25, to reach out and gather friends and family, to share ideas, and to support each other. A Yahoo club.

For Kids of a TS Parent

COLAGE: Children of Lesbians and Gays Everywhere. "COLAGE is the best (well okay, the only) support and advocacy organization for daughters and sons of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender parents."

Children of Transsexuals (COT): "This page is for children whose parents have under- gone or are in the process of having their sex changed." An Excellent site!

Families Like Mine

is a web site dedicated to decreasing isolation for children with parents who are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender (GLBT), and bringing voice to the experiences of these families.

In some communities these families are out and proud; in others, they are almost invisible. In the United States there are approximately 8-12 million kids who have at least one GLBT parent. This site was created by Abigail Garner, a lifetime advocate for GLBT families because she comes from one herself. You can find information on support, networking and resources, as well as learn more about Abigail, her writing and her lectures and workshops.

Family Pride Coalition: "Supporting and protecting the families of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered parents."

Hannah's Haven: "Hi! My name is Hannah Moffitt. I'm 16 and a junior in high school. I made this page to help kids, like me, who have lgbt (lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgendered) parents."

Kids of Gays and Lesbians Out On the Web: By a college age daughter of a gay dad and his partner, she has about 100 links to other resources.
