DUBUQUE TRANSGENDER
DUBUQUE TRANSGENDER. Founded by Rachael Ferraro, the organization in 2016 was working with CO DUBUQUE to plan workshops to help LGBTQ+ people in the community. (1)
According to their Facebook page, the organization was founded on July 26, 2013 to offer support in the tri-states and beyond. (2) The stated mission of the organization was:
education, information, and understanding of those who are gender questioning, or transitioning. We hope that information contained here will be used with the goal of a more comfortable, and informed community, willing to accept those who are following a very difficult path to become their true self.
