You have to be vetted by leadership to be part of these groups. Parents will have a phone call or a Zoom meeting with a chapter leader before being accepted into the group.

The groups below are for everyone. Some offer support but also have a wealth of resources and information.

https://genderdysphoriasupportnetwork.com/ - Parent support groups via Zoom. They have meetings for new parents, parents of estranged or medicalized kids, etc.
https://ourduty.group/ Great resource for parents. They don't have support groups. It's more informational.
Other resources for parents
https://www.pittparents.com/ - A substack with hundreds of stories from parents who have a trans identified child or young adult. There are also a few stories from detransitioners.
NOTE: Christian parents can join these groups and ask for the faith sub-groups. It's easy to get connected once you are a part of the larger support groups.

https://childparentrights.org/ loaded with resources. They offer Support for church leaders. You can order a Church Transgender Response Guide. I (Axa) have read it and it’s excellent. (FYI) it comes from an orthodox biblical perspective.
