About

Asset to the Resistance is a network of accountants, tax preparers, and fiscal consultants who offer free, grassroots financial education and connect people and organizations to fiscal support. They run Q&A sessions, a referral network, and personal-finance and mutual-aid resources. Their mission explicitly names transphobia, homophobia, and gender inequality among the systemic barriers they work against. Contact assettotheresistance@gmail.com.
