Background

About Michael Eric Brown

Michael, himself being a member of the trans community, realized the need for more localized support systems in the trans community, and acted upon it with starting up an organization in August of 2008 that provides individual support with mentoring, resources, emergency assistance, safe housing, clothing, transitional supplies, and more. Michael and his wife opened their home in Arizona for four years (2008-2012) as a Trans Safe House and Transitional Living Home (H.O.P.E. House) at the same time for the homeless and victims of abuse within the community, and provided this safe haven to all in need. The S.A.F.E. Project is an extension of support providing emergency assistance around the country. Michael has been proactive in facilitating weekly groups and social events for his local community over the past few years, and currently focuses on the individual needs of the trans community and networking around the world through online and offline support. He was also successful in creating large, multi-day trans-educational events,(TransForm Arizona) and continues to present workshops, and speaking engagements on trans issues and lives for educators, social service agencies, and various trans-related events and conferences.
