Who are we?
TESA's mission is to be a witness to and a voice for matters concerning trans Albertans.
TESA was formed in the hopes that building a traditional non-profit advocacy group would open opportunities for formal engagement with authorities who otherwise overlook the unique needs of the larger trans community.
