MTPC Logo The Massachusetts Transgender Political Coalition (MTPC) now offers job listings of known jobs that are transgender friendly. Certainly all jobs should accept you based on what your performance is in benefiting the company for whom you work, but, sadly, that is not the case (hence the reason for HB1722). So, to see some job listings that are transgender friendly, mouse on over to MTPC’s Trans-Friendly Job Listings to see what’s around.

Oh, if you know of a job that is trans-friendly, consider posting it at MTPC’s board to spread the word on the opening!

Beck’s Cafe also covered another list of transgender friendly jobs at our article, “Simply Hired and Transgender Friendly too” Go take a peek to see what you can find. Also, Southern Comfort Conference, on September 30 - October 5th, 2008 will be featuring their Second Annual Career Expo (a national event) in collaboration with Out and Equal Workplace Advocates. Exhibiting companies include GM, Raytheon, IBM, and many others

Fenway Community Health Logo If you are transgender, transsexual, gender queer, gender non-conforming, a cross dresser, or anyone who crosses mainstream society’s notions of gender, Fenway Community Health offers a support group series, the T-Supper Club. A new 6 week group is starting up on September 23, 2008. Topics include community building, sexual health issues, stress management, personal expression and group dialog. The group is free and dinner is served each week. See their post at the Fenway Health site at this link here.
