Welcome to Illawarra Shoalhaven Gender Alliance

About ISGA

Illawarra Shoalhaven Gender Alliance Inc (ISGA) is a registered health promotion charity that aims to enhance collaboration between the trans and gender diverse community, health providers, and allies by providing opportunities for engagement, support, collaboration, education, training, and advocacy. ISGA aims to be trans led and inclusive.​

 

ISGA celebrates the diversity of the trans and gender diverse experience, advocating against systems that limit or prevent access to affirming healthcare, supporting autonomy and respect for all bodies, identities and expressions.

We recognize the role that families (chosen or origin), partners, health providers, educators, service providers, and allies have in supporting the TGD community, and therefore all are welcomed here. 

Clinicians providing gender affirming care are encouraged to join our multidisciplinary clinical network, which meets 2 monthly for peer support, networking and learning opportunities. 

​

ISGA runs an annual community festival at the start of Trans Week of Remembrance in November, the Trans and Friends Festival (TAFFI). We also run a multidisciplinary Clinical Network to provide peer support, networking and learning opportunities for gender affirming clinicians. Please browse these pages for further information and get in touch via our contact button. 

​

Our vision is for a trans and gender diverse community that is safe, supported, encouraged and empowered and that all trans and gender diverse people have appropriate and equitable access to health care.​
