Welcome letter<br />
Welcome!<br />
I am so happy to see all of you here today.<br />
This is our second annual Transgender Youth<br />
Empowerment Workshop. It’s bigger than last<br />
year in so many ways. We have more sessions to<br />
choose from, more facilitators, more support<br />
from some amazing sponsors and we’ve raised<br />
so much more money which will enable us to do<br />
more for you.<br />
Please look at the ads in this program. These are all individuals,<br />
businesses and organizations who fully support transgender<br />
individuals. Many of our sponsors are potential employers; these are<br />
companies who are open and affirming and welcome job applicants<br />
from the LGBTQ community.<br />
“The Stand with Trans mission is to provide the tools needed by<br />
transgender youth so they will be empowered, supported and<br />
validated as they transition to their authentic life.”<br />
We are thrilled to offer this opportunity to you! On behalf of my<br />
family, the Board of Directors and all those who contributed to today’s<br />
workshop, we wish you an amazing day.<br />
With love,<br />
Roz Keith, President and Founder<br />
