About TJLP

TJLP is a group of radical activists, social workers, and organizers who provide support, advocacy, and free, holistic criminal legal services to poor and street-based transgender people in Illinois. We are deeply committed to the universal right of gender self-determination, a long term goal of abolishing the prison-industrial complex, and commitment to transformative justice models as necessary alternatives to the criminal punishment system.

Voices from the Inside

“Around early April, 2009, I became a client of TJLP while awaiting trial at the county jail. Staying true to their roots, the organization became aware of my struggles with the judicial system and sprang into action. During the time that I was awaiting trial, friends, family, and allies to the organization began to embrace me. This support turned into love. Love like I never knew. I loved myself, the people around me and the world we live in. I recognized that I am not hopeless, nor a disgrace, but a valuable asset to the LGBTQ communities and the indifferent world around us.”
