Title: Anything in metro Atlanta area (northwest preferably)
Post by: Leslie36369 on February 02, 2016, 11:11:21 PM
I will admit I haven't searched in several months, however I have searched and found nothing. It seems Atlanta would have something like this. I really need a place I can go dressed completely or as a guy. I want to be comfortable going other places and DESPERATELY NEED TO MAKE FRIENDS. If anyone knows about anything in Atlanta please let me know.

I'm not aware of anything in Northwest Atlanta. AGE Atlanta Gender Explorations meets in Southeast Atlanta. There may be another group meeting in the Old Fourth Ward area but I will have to check on that.

Thank you for replying.
Where does AGE meet, and do they have a website? I can google it see how far of a trip it is.
Everywhere I've searched comes up with nothing. It's surprising for Atlanta considering the LGBT community.

AGE's website is http://www.atlantagender.org/ (http://www.atlantagender.org/)  I know where they meet but it's not to be given out over an open forum.  On their homepage there are contacts to find the meeting location.  I also asked someone about anyone meeting on the Northside but I haven't got an answer back from them.

Thanks for supplying that.  I wasn't aware of them since I'm in the Southern Crescent but looking at their site, I know two of the people in that photo.  Good people.

This is a decent list for the Atlanta area. Not just support groups, but a bunch of other stuff too. I think there may be two or three support groups listed. I live in Sandy Springs and I know there is a group in Roswell that has already been listed.  That would be closest for me. Anyway, good luck.  If you find anything else, let us know!
