“I AM HUMAN” These three simple words encapsulate our mission as an organization.

Founded by a trans man of color, I Am Human was created to empower the lives of LGBTQIA individuals. Our goal is to create a safe space for individuals who are homeless, living with HIV, and trans youth, with a focus on those who experience discrimination due to their lifestyle or gender identity.

We aim to break the barriers with regard to the societal disparities in education, employment, healthcare, and housing. Our group is driven by a commitment to ensure all trans and gender non-conforming people are treated fairly and protected from violence. We don’t see race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation…..We see Human!!

I pledge to remove discrimination from my heart. To never allow my beliefs to cause me to mistreat anyone. To respect each and every Human as an individual And to never accept mistreatment or injustice on my life without being heard. I pledge to make a conscious effort to live up to the true meaning of this pledge and because I am Human and I make mistakes I will say this pledge as much as necessary so I can be the difference I wish to see in the World.
