Tell Your Story!

To effectively advocate against discrimination, we need to tell our stories, both negative and positive. For this, we need YOUR story. If you've suffered discrimination or special help or support at any time because of your gender, share your story with us. However great or small, you'll be helping us tell our story to those who will vote on trans equality in Massachusetts.
