Thank you for your interest in joining the Trans Journalists Association! Membership is free and welcome to anyone who's trans, nonbinary, or not exclusively the gender they were assigned at birth.
Right now, we tend to review membership applications twice a month. Please allow 2-6 weeks from your application to receive an invitation to the TJA slack and listerv. We are a volunteer-run organization processing applications as quickly as we are able.
Membership approval grants you access to an online community of TJA members sharing job opportunities, mentoring one another, having discussions about our industry, and supporting one another in other ways. We may reach out to you for additional information to ensure the safety of our members.
We reserve the right to deny membership due to behavior that includes, but is not limited to, hateful or discriminatory rhetoric (including racism, xenophobia, ableism, homophobia, biphobia, transphobia, etc), bullying, harassment, abusive or demeaning conduct, and other behavior that stands in opposition to our Code of Conduct.
If you have questions about membership or this questionnaire, you can email
