Twenty Club
mission statement: Nature:
The Twenty Club is a support group run by and for the transsexual
community. Our Purpose is to provide knowledgeable information
and ongoing peer support to transsexuals though the many stages of
their transition. Friends and relatives are encouraged to attend in the
hope of gaining a greater understanding and acceptance of their loved
one's gender dysphoria. The Twenty Club is non-profit and non-sexual.
We are not a religious organization and have no affiliation with any
religious denomination or government institution. We hold no prejudice
against any other group of people Services:
The Twenty Club, Inc. publishes occasional newsletters, Twenty, serving persons with
gender dysphoria and helping professionals. We meet on the second and
fourth Saturdays of every month. Meetings are structured to provide
support, information and open, accepting understanding. On occasion, we
have professional speakers on educational and medical subjects of
interest to gender dysphoric persons. Additionally, we have social
get-togethers, club parties, outreach to New England and New York
gender organizations, and a speakers bureau. Smoking is not allowed
during our meeting. Local ordinances restrict smoking to outside the
building. During the course of the meeting, we enjoy a half hour break,
during which people are encouraged to get to know one another and to
help themselves to food and beverages. Please feel free to bring food
and/or beverages to share with our group. Security:
We are a peer support group, not a dating service or an instant source
of new best friends. Persons interested in attending meetings are
welcome to come so long as they have a personal interest in gender
dysphoria, understand the supportive nature of our group, and are
willing to respect the anonymity of all persons attending. At no time
may another persons name, address, telephone number, or any personal
information be given out without full permission of that individual.
Cameras, recording devices and members of the media are not allowed at
our meetings. Membership
