TransPACT, a local support group for parents of transgender kids, is proud to bring TRANS to Connecticut for this special, one-night-only event! Whether you are well-versed in transgender issues, or a newbie to this topic, the film TRANS, which features personal stories of transgender people across the country, will inform, touch, and inspire you. Our special guest, Mark Schoen, is the producer of TRANS and will be on hand to answer your questions on the making of this landmark production.

This event is also a fundraiser for the Jim Collins Foundation, which raises money to fund gender-confirming surgeries for those who need surgery to live a healthy life, but have no ability to pay for it themselves. Co-founder of the JCF, Tony Ferraiolo, will also be at the screening to answer any questions about this worthy cause, or about the support groups for transgender youth that he runs here in Connecticut. When you purchase your ticket, you will be given a option to donate to the Jim Collins Foundation. Please consider giving to this life-affirming organization.
