What is the Gender Affirmation Closet?

The Gender Affirmation Closet is a resource where Trans and Gender Nonconforming folks can find free clothing and accessories. Trans and Gender Nonconforming folks can take as much or as little as they want at once.  

This closet exists because Trans and Gender Nonconforming people can have a hard time finding places where they can shop comfortably due to discrimination, can find it financially difficult to replace large amounts of clothes to help them express their gender and can find it financially difficult to purchase clothing due to job discrimination.

No one has to prove they are "trans enough" to use the closet. We ask people to refrain from taking items for hobbies such as drag or cosplay. It is open at any time the center is open.

Items in the Gender Affirmation Clothing Closet include:

• Skirts, dresses, blouses
• Pants, button-ups, shorts, jackets
• Accessories, jewelry 
• Trans-Affirming Shapewear
• Binders
