Black Transmen of Ohio (BTMO) is raising $5,000 to send members of our leadership team to the Black Trans Advocacy Conference (BTAC) 2026 in New Orleans (April 21–26, 2026).

This is more than travel.
This is strategy.
This is leadership development.
This is sustainability.

The Black Trans Advocacy Conference (BTAC) is one of the largest national gatherings of Black trans leaders, organizers, advocates, and changemakers. It’s a powerful space for political education, skill-building, movement strategy, and restoration.

For BTMO, attending BTAC means:

Strengthening our advocacy for Black trans men and transmasculine people across Ohio
Building national partnerships that benefit our local community
Gaining tools to expand programming, legal clinics, and support spaces
Preventing burnout by investing in leadership restoration

We are on the ground year-round — hosting legal clinics, facilitating support groups, building partnerships, and expanding access to resources. To continue this work sustainably, we must invest in our leadership.

What Your Support Covers

Together, we’re building a future where Black trans men and transmasculine people are not just surviving — but leading, thriving, and shaping policy.
