First, thank you for leaving such an info packed comment. It’s very encouraging to see things are perking on the West Coast on this as well. I guess this is the right time for it. It pains me to see perfectly wonderful trans-men and trans-women being kicked to the curb when they are fully qualified for a job.

I hope your visit to SCC in Atlanta is fun and helps the Ingersoll Gender Center’a job fair.

Here on the West Coast, the idea began in San Francisco, but we in Seattle are not far behind. Ingersoll Gender Center (http://www.ingersollcenter.org) expects to host its own Pacific Northwest job fair next Spring.
As a member of Ingersoll’s board, I will be monitoring the fair at SCC in Atlanta. I will also be holding on to my night job as a rare trans comedian.
