Seahorse Victoria Inc was formed in 1975 as a support and social group for the Victorian transgender community and is the longest running organisation of its type in Australia. While the internet is a valuable tool, nothing can replace what we believe is vital – everyday human contact. We meet at various locations several times a month and also hold fund raising events for the benefit of the transgender community. Members are also involved in legislative reform and work with government and community groups in all aspects of human rights for the Victorian transgender community.

Whatever your circumstance or the distance you are on your journey, Seahorse Victoria members have a wealth of experience and understanding. Everyone has something to share that can benefit others. We do not judge, discriminate or apply labels to members. We are all individuals and understand that everyone has different needs and life circumstances. Nobody can tell you “how to be transgender”.

Membership to Seahorse Victoria is open to all people who identify themselves as transgender, regardless of where on this wide spectrum you fall. But before you can become a member we’ll need to speak to you first, as we need to protect the privacy of our members.
