About us
About Us Founded in 2017, The Transgender District is the first legally recognized transgender district of its kind worldwide. Our work prioritizes investing in the Black and Latinx community, with an emphasis in providing services that empower and create opportunities for Black and Latinx transgender women in the Tenderloin neighborhood. We are committed to creating the healing, economic empowerment, and cultural enrichment for transgender people in the Tenderloin - who have and continue to be plagued by social, racial, and structural violence, marginalization, disenfranchisement, and abject poverty, yet maintain a fiery resistance and unfaltering resilience. Our Mission and Vision The mission of The Transgender District is to create an urban environment that fosters the rich history, culture, legacy, and empowerment of transgender people and its deep roots in the southeastern Tenderloin neighborhood. Our core objectives encompass stabilizing and economically empowering the transgender community by fostering ownership of homes, businesses, historic and cultural cites, and providing safe community spaces.
