Who We Are

NB TIES (Non-Binary Trans Inclusive Extended Services) was founded on the principle that faith and full inclusion are not mutually exclusive—they are mutually enforcing. We saw a critical gap in services for non-binary and trans individuals, particularly those seeking a supportive community rooted in faith.

Our organization operates as a bridge, connecting the trans community with essential resources while also educating the wider world (including faith communities) on the necessity of gender affirmation and love.

 

Our Core Values

• Radical Affirmation: We affirm and celebrate the full spectrum of gender identities, expressions, and lived experiences, including binary trans, non-binary, genderfluid, and all gender-expansive people.

• Holistic Wellness: We address the mind, body, spirit, and social needs of our community members, recognizing that true wellness is comprehensive.

• Faith-Driven Justice: Our commitment to the Christian gospel compels us to pursue justice, equity, and compassion for marginalized individuals.

• Community-Centered Care: Our programs are designed and led by members of the LGBTQ+ community, ensuring our services are relevant, respectful, and effective.

 

What Does "Extended" Mean?

The "E" in NB TIES signifies our commitment to Extended Services—going beyond simple referrals to offer multi-layered support, educational outreach, and systemic advocacy that addresses the root causes of discrimination and lack of access.
