2012
The Trans Youth and Parent Summit (TYPS) is being postponed to September 2012 due to circumstances beyond our control.
Two locations fell through and we could not secure an adequate event space for June. So we're moving the event to the fall, most likely September, pending securing a location.
When a location is secured, a date will be posted here and we will send an update through our e-list.
If you are not on our e-list you can join it here.
