Question of the Week
"Is it possible to Advocate for transgender rights and not be out? Can I call my state and federal representatives to support transgender rights and stay anonymous or at least confidential? Will I out myself by advocating for Transgender rights? With all that is going on I feel I can help in some way but am still concerned with not outing myself until I am ready."
