community. We will discuss topics that concern our well being
including HIV and Hepatitis C prevention, safer sex, how to safely
inject hormones, passing, safe restrooms, the steps to transition and
other concerns that group members may have. We hope to create a safe
space to talk about the stress, anxiety and other issues that come up
as being a member of this community. We also hope to have a lot of
fun, play some games, watch some movies and simply enjoy each others'
company.
