heya, i currently live in a small town on the border of nd, about an hour north of the fargomoorhead area, and i was wondering if anyone knew of any groups in the general area?

East Side??

If you're willing to cross the 49th, there's this:

I live just north of Bismarck in the middle of nowhere and this information would help me too, but I don't have a passport and certainly can't afford the drive.

I actually live in the Twin Cities but spend way to much time within 70 miles of Fargo.  I do know some people there and could check on that, if it would help.  Bismark, I can make a polite inquiry but am not optomistic.

I lived in Grand Forks several years ago and there wasn't a support group there at the time that I knew of. The closest one was in Fargo. I went a few times, carpooling with 2 other members that went. I am sorry I do not remember a contact from there, a therapist told me about it.

I felt a little awkward there but then again that was at the very start of my transition and I tend to feel slightly awkward anywhere without a laptop and great music   

On the plus side, a 'vocal coach' attended those meetings too when I went, which can be a big help for some people. Not sure if they still meet.

No idea about Bismarck.

Hey, I lived in Grand Forks.  Wow.  I was still in denial but I was there.  Left right after the flood.
