Hey There Ally!
Transcending Spaces is a platform dedicated to helping the LGBTQ+ community, especially transgender and nonbinary individuals, find verified safe and inclusive places to live, work, and connect. Through community stories, helpful resources, and a growing directory of supportive businesses, we’re building a world where every identity belongs and every space is welcoming. Together, we’re redefining what it means to feel seen, supported, and safe everywhere you go.
Let's give it to you not so straight...
At Transcending Spaces, we believe that everyone deserves to feel safe, seen, and celebrated - no matter where they are. Our mission is to connect the LGBTQ+ community, and especially transgender and nonbinary individuals, with verified safe and inclusive businesses, healthcare providers, and community resources.
Born out of a desire to make the world more inclusive one space at a time, Transcending Spaces serves as both a directory and a storytelling platform. We feature real experiences from community members, highlight businesses that are actively creating affirming environments, and share resources that help people find the support they deserve. Whether you’re searching for a trans-friendly doctor, a welcoming café, or simply stories that remind you you’re not alone, we’re here to guide you there.
Our initiative goes beyond listing places: it’s about building trust and fostering connection. Every location featured on our platform is verified or recommended by the community itself, ensuring authenticity and safety. We aim to empower both individuals and businesses to create spaces where every identity belongs.
Through our blog, resource hub, and ever-growing directory, Transcending Spaces is cultivating a network of inclusion and understanding. Together, we’re not just changing where people go, we’re changing how the world welcomes them.
Transcend the ordinary. Find your space.
