TEA of Utah’s mission is to educate the public on transgender issues for better understanding and awareness of discrimination towards the transgender population. TEA supports equal rights and equal opportunity for all GLBT individuals.

Awareness and proper understanding of transgender men and women is the first step for things to change in Utah. TEA facilitates educational forums to the public by providing gender 101 classes in Colleges throughout the Salt Lake Valley and through other organizations in and outside the GLBT community. TEA also provides sensitivity training to local businesses and outside organizations adding "Gender Identity" to the non-discrimination policies they enforce. TEA is striving to educate the politicians in Utah about the transgender community for increased awareness of discrimination. We believe it is TEA time!
