OUR MISSION
Transcending Adolescence (TA) is a 501c3 registered U.S. nonprofit. Our mission is to contribute necessary mental strengths and knowledge needed to progress through each individual's transition. Through SPEAR, we encourage self-awareness to assist transgender youth in overcoming the obstacles they will inevitably confront in our society and inside themselves. Our mission is to provide the knowledge and mental fortitude each person needs to find peace during their journey.

What we do
Summer Camp
Transcending Adolescence has created a summer camp program for transgender youth to have a safe space to connect with each other and receive support from a staff of trained camp counselors.
Retreats
TA retreat sessions will be held in various parts of the U.S. to reach youth in more individualized settings. By working with small groups, TA staff can provide more direct support to youth who can benefit most.
