Advocates for Trans Equality Education Fund

Our Mission

Advocates for Trans Equality Education Fund is dedicated to advancing the legal rights and social inclusion of transgender people throughout the United States. We bring together decades of experience advocating for equality and pushing for systemic change. Our work includes providing education on critical legal rights, advocating for policies that protect the well-being and dignity of transgender individuals, and engaging communities to foster greater understanding and acceptance. Our vision is a future where all transgender people live in safety and equality, free from discrimination and barriers to success. As a 501(c)(3) organization, we leverage our expertise to deliver impactful educational programs and research that uplift the transgender community, and inform policymakers, institutions, and the public about the importance of trans equality.

A4TE Education Fund was formed in 2024 following the merger of National Center For Transgender Equality (NCTE) and Trans Legal Defense and Education Fund (TLDEF)
