So currently, I'm really glad there's people at all who support and understand that being trans or being in the lgbtqia is not a choice. As for how they can help? In my personal opinion, treat us like human beings, we're just people like you, we just want the support we need. may i ask what you mean by kits? the context i'm picking up is kits about 3d printing or kits for trans kids. The issue i'm seeing with that is: it all depends on the schools policies, which youths it's targeted for, and if it's appropriate to be dropped on school grounds.

I say the last bit as there are helpful 3d printed packers for ftm trans kids, but they tend to be considered "inappropriate" due to the shape.

Yeah that wasn't at all what I meant lol, my apologies for being unclear.

Yeah, 3d printing kits, a printer, few other necessary odds and ends.

Yeah that's my concern too. I'm going to see if I can get the email addresses of some local physics/computer class/ shop teachers and see if I could just put them directly into the hands of a student club or something.
