Our Mission
TIGERRS is a nonhierarchical collective dedicated to delivering programs and resources that build solidarity and safety among transgender, intersex and gender-expansive Minnesotans.
Our Vision
A strong intergenerational community united by shared identities, common goals and mutual support.
Our Method
- We create spaces for people of all ages to connect, process, empower each other and grow together on our journeys of liberation
- We develop, gather and distribute resources for our communities and allies
- We increase awareness and understanding of transgender, intersex and gender-expansive people through outreach and education
- We organize around 10 core values: intersectionality, focus, integrity, intergenerationality, self-worth, education, community, solidarity, empowerment and accountability
Who We Are
