From this, with the help of r/transgenderau on Reddit, Trans.au was created. Starting with the wiki that r/transgenderau had to begin with, but was a bit out of date, we created our maps that shows where services that other trans folk use are located across Australia.

Trans.au was founded on unceded Aboriginal Land. We acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples, their Ancestors and Elders past and present. We recognise the ongoing connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples have to the land, waterways, air, and people.
We acknowledge First Nations Peoples resilience and strength – especially that which we see in Brotherboys and Sistergirls who always have been and always will be an important part of Aboriginal culture and community.
