About
Founded in 2017 by advocate Verniss McFarland, the practice aims to reduce social isolation, stigma, and violence that marginalized communities face daily. They provide supportive services, including emergency housing resource navigation, food pantry, clothing closet, and case management support. Additionally, they offer recreational and arts activities, such as media center/recording studio, painting classes, and community celebrations, to provide empowerment and safety for communities in need. The Mahogany Project partners with advocacy groups and organizations to fight against transphobia and advocate for equal rights and protections of transgender/non-binary and queer communities in the South.
