About Us
TAP VA Care Packages are free, gender-affirming clothing care packages. An extension of the Transgender Assistance Program, our mission is ending trans homelessness across Virginia. We know that ending homelessness must be approached at several angles. Providing clothing that trans people feel affirmed and confident in so they can thrive at home and in their workplace is an essential part of that effort.
Our closet re-branded in June 2022 to "Karen's Closet". Named after a beloved TAP Virginia volunteer who was dedicated to seeing the liberation of transgender lives.
