While legislatures across the country are attacking Trans personhood and medical care, we know it is only a matter of time they come for others in the LGBTQ+ community.
We are assembling a cohort of passionate LGBTQ+ individuals, allies, and accomplices to engage in meaningful service, grow their professional network, and develop key competencies to help prepare for future career success through participation in this program.
We need you to join and share The InReach Young Professionals Board Program. This group is a mobilized group of individuals ages 21-40 who show up for the LGBTQ+ community in three ways while also benefiting from our curated professional development opportunities.
App Support
- Directly contribute to advancing the free InReach App as Local Community Reviewers, translators (via Crowdin), and/or via coding support (*available to engineers).
- Raise funds for 501(c)(3) InReach in order to continue to fund the mission.

Mission Statement
To ensure safe help is InReach for all members of the LGBTQ+ community.
Description
InReach is a trans-led nonprofit offering the world’s first open source platform connecting LGBTQ+ people facing persecution or discrimination with safe, independently verified resources. Our vision is for every LGBTQ+ person to have on-demand access to the safe resources they need to thrive.
InReach is available on web (desktop and mobile), and native iOS and Android. InReach’s open-source technology instantly matches trans and queer people in need with safe, independently verified housing, medical and mental health care, immigration and other legal help, meal assistance, education and employment, translation, community and spiritual support, and more critical services. App features include: documentation search filters, translation, saving and sharing resources, leaving public ratings/reviews, the ability to suggest new resources, and service provider features.
InReach serves as a comprehensive digital one-stop-shop for the intersectional LGBTQ+ community: InReach lists verified services for LGBTQ+ asylum seekers, refugees and other immigrants, LGBTQ+ BIPOC communities, trans and gender non-conforming folks, LGBTQ+ youth and caregivers, and more LGBTQ+ communities. The InReach App is free for everyone, including lawyers, case managers, social workers, and other providers searching for affirming resource referrals for LGBTQ+ clients.
