MONDAY NOVEMBER 15
EVENT: TRANS INCLUSION GROUP MEETING
TIME: 2-3pm
LOCATION: The Centre for Women and Trans People UT
DESCRIPTION:

Are you trans, or have you ever questioned your gender identity? Do you need an opportunity to be around other trans individuals in a safe space? Do you need trans-to-trans support? Are you a trans ally or is there someone you love who is trans? Would you like to learn how to more strongly support them? Would you like to be active on trans issues? Interested in being a volunteer?

If the answer to any of these questions is YES, then we would like to invite you to participate in the Trans Inclusion Group (TIG). The Centre is always open to gender-variant individuals, but during TIG we focus exclusively on the issues that are pressing to trans folk, both on the campus, in the community, and within The Centre itself. The TIG meeting format is open and relaxed, with informal discussion and meet-and-greet (with the possibility of one-on-one trans support) followed by our action committee meeting that fights for trans visibility and inclusion. But there are even larger issues on the horizon so no matter where you are on the gender spectrum come out and get involved! Start the week by connecting with some of the people organizing these events.

To mark the beginning of a Two Spirit, Intersex and Trans Week of Remembrance, The Centre hosts a community art activism initiative to put together a memorial for those we have lost to trans and transphobic violence and to remember the people who have made significant contributions to the struggle. Come out and show your support.
