With us being two weeks away from the start of 2012, it's time to start saving the dates of the various conferences and events you may wish to know about or simply attend in order to become better educated about and be a better advocate for the transgender community.One of the events I've had the pleasure of taking part in since I've come back home is the Texas Transgender Non-Discrimination Summit. So what's the purpose of the TTNS? Glad you asked.
