HOUSELESS LEADERSHIP PROJECT
People experiencing houselessness are socially and politically excluded from the public sphere. We are organizing with people who experience houselessness and their allies to combat policies and practices of institutions which marginalize people. Current projects include the Houseless Leadership Project.
TRANSGENDER INFORMED CONSENT
Our other current project, the Transgender Informed Consent Project, include entering conferences for medical professionals, nurses and students regarding trans informed consent. Trans informed consent is important for culturally competent medical care that does not exclude any group of people. We are educating to ensure that medical professionals, nurses, students, and others are educated in informed consent.
