Ashley and Morgan Mayfaire
passion for community organizing and social justice issues has led to their current role in non-profit management. After experiencing firsthand the barriers their husband, Morgan, faced during his gender transition from female to male, Ashley and Morgan co-founded TransSOCIAL, Inc. to build a network of resources and support for the Trans community. Ashley frequently speaks on educational panels and is constantly creating new curricula for TransSOCIAL’s TLGBQ+ Cultural Sensitivity Training for businesses, healthcare providers,and universities, making sure that they are compliant with federal non-discrimination guidelines and creating safer and affirming spaces for Trans people to access care and public accommodations.
They engage the community in HIV prevention and treatment efforts by participating in the South Florida AIDS Network. Ashley and Morgan have consulted for many Trans-focused research projects. Ashley is an alumna of Massachusetts College of Art and Design. When Ashley has any free time, Ashley is creating art or tending to their furry and feathered children. When Morgan is not busy using his visibility as a Trans man to educate others about the Trans experience, you can find green thumb Morgan tending to his orchid collection
Thank you, TransSOCIAL, Ashley, and Morgan Mayfaire for your unconditional love and countless hours helping our Trans community
