“I have been attending DVG meetings since 2000 and have made some very dear, life-long friends. When I went to my first meeting, I was nervous and did not know what to expect. The ladies made me feel very welcome and I was put at ease. That was almost 25 years ago and being with these great friends has been such a blessing! My spouse has also found support!” – Kathy, East Bay
The Diablo Valley Girls is a confidential “members only” group open to anyone who identifies as transgender and would like fellowship and support. DVG is a social, non-sexual, non-political, and confidential group created for support and fostering community. We have meetings throughout the year at homes, restaurants, and venues.
We range in age from our twenties through our eighties and come from a variety of backgrounds and professions. We may be married or single, and may describe ourselves as gay, straight, or bisexual. What we have in common is a desire to celebrate who we are and to support each other. Our group is open to anyone who identifies as transgender, including crossdressers, trans women, and those who are questioning or exploring their gender identity. We invite partners, family members, friends, and allies to join us. Our spirit of inclusiveness creates a welcoming space where all of our members can enjoy themselves, and be themselves.
Founded by Donna Freeman and “Just” Janet the DVG community has participated in local transgender focused events for more than 30 years.
Contact Kathy Randall if you would like to get access to the calendar of events, or just to say “hi.” We have twice a month social meetings at a restaurant in Walnut Creek. Contact Kathy for details: DiabloValleyGirls@gmail.com

About Diablo Valley Girls
Diablo Valley Girls’ (DVG) primary focus is to connect people who share interests and hobbies, without the intention of a romantic or sexual relationship. This site is monitored for content.
DVG was formed to improve the lives of transgender individuals and their families by providing social opportunities, peer support, education, resources, outreach programs, and other services focused on the specific needs of the male-to-female transgender community.
MISSION: Our primary goal is to create opportunities for transgender women to get together and socialize in a personally affirming, safe, and supportive environment. We also strive to raise awareness and understanding of the transgender community through our online presence and our positive interactions with the public at our events. We’re all about changing lives and changing perceptions.
Thinking about “coming out?” Coming out to those close to you can feel like one of the hardest things you will do. Especially to a wife, husband, partner or child. Here are some ideas for coming out to a partner and a child you may find helpful. LINK
There is a lot of political activity surrounding the trans community. It can (and does) feel overwhelming. The temptation to hide and binge-watch Netflix’s is very real and compelling. Although our future may look bleak and those opposing our very existence appear to be in control, we cannot give up hope. For there is hope. We have the hope born from our loving and accepting community. LINK
