About Gender Journeys

The first Gender Journeys Group was developed in 2005 by the Sherbourne Health Centre, in Toronto, Ontario to help support people in the early stages of transition. The group provided a space for trans people to connect, explore the social, emotional, and physical aspects of gender transition, and benefit from each other’s knowledge and experience. Each Gender Journeys Group is unique to the communities they serve but all provide an opportunity for learning and improving participants’ resilience and ability to feel secure in their identities.
