to dress how they want to, maybe change their name, or maybe change their
body, if they choose.

NOTE: Not all Trans Women want to, can afford
to, or are able to undergo Transition and the surgeries that are associated
with it.
For this reason, agency policies that restrict access
based on appearance are discriminatory and uneffective. Our Programme
does not support any appearance-based policies.
