Transfolk WA acknowledges the Whajuk Noongar people as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we are based. We pay respects to Elders past, present, and emerging, and to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Sovereignty was never ceded. It always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
