WHAT WE DO (AND HOW WE CHANGE LIVES)

Sanctuary. Movement. Creativity. Community Infrastructure.

Every calendar program at our sanctuary, every event we host, every workshop we create is FREE for BIPOC Trans folx and designed with one purpose:

to shift the material, emotional, and community conditions of trans and queer life in Florida.

We do this by focusing on:

Creative & Cultural Uplift

Ripple Hauxs Art studio showcases, we host our open mic "Tiny Desk like" series streamed live on Twitch: The Hauxs Show, Ft. Charlie Adonis, Residencies with bipoc trans and queer local DJs, community-driven collage labs, Free.99 friendsgiving feast--- we center BIPOC expression as a path to liberation. Our people are not an afterthought. They are the main event, and are valued for their art, impact and humanity.

Wellness & Strength Building

Four-times-a-week circuit trainings led by Bipoc trans PTs , twice a month "Bind Safely" workshops led by Stxph our founder, powerlifting classes, healing group support spaces, and trauma-informed practices. Because BIPOC trans and queer strength; physical, emotional, and energetic- keeps us alive.

Safety, Security & Mutual Aid

Transportation and accompaniment to GAHT appointments. Tactical Emergency Casualty Care Response Safety trainings & Community defense education, Firearm Safety training & Crisis Prevention training.

Ripple Hauxs maintains a commitment to protect our people on our own terms because no one else will do it with the love, urgency, and precision that we do.

Direct Support & Resource Access
We provide practical, immediate support through food-sharing pantries, donation drives, emergency contraceptives, menstrual products, Narcan, fentanyl test strips, and a gender-affirming clothing closet. This is trans and queer empowerment in action—real resources, harm-reduction tools, and essential supplies placed directly into our community’s hands through intentional partnerships and mutual-aid infrastructure.
