The Big List of Resources for Family of Trans* People

transteens:

This list isn’t as big as it should be, because unfortunately there isn’t a lot of help out there for parents, siblings, children and other family members of trans* people. However this list is always growing and will be updated whenever new information is found/created. Family members of Trans* people go through a different type of transition when their child begins to transition, however it is still a transition and not an easy one. Hopefully these resources will help.
