UMKC values diversity and inclusiveness and is committed to being a welcoming environment that supports the success of all students.

Trans+ Young Adult Social Group is a trans-exclusive space for trans+ identifying college students and young adults age 18-30 to discuss topics relevant to the experience of being a trans+ young adult.  The group meets on Monday nights from 7-9pm in the Rainbow Lounge at UMKC.

We have also started an exciting, new all-inclusive Trans+Allies group this semester that is open to trans+ individuals of all ages, friends, family, community members, students, and anyone who identifies as an ally.  The group meets the first Thursday of each month in the Student Union room 302 from 6-8pm starting September 4th.  This would be a great group for ally students, family members and friends of trans+ individuals, as well as trans+ individuals who are unavailable on Monday nights or do not meet the age restriction for the college student/young adult group.
