Bay Windows - New England's largest GLBT newspaper: "The Human Rights Campaign (HRC) announced Jan. 18 that the LGBT rights organization will sponsor a training program for transgender job-seekers in Boston next month.
The free inaugural event of HRC’s Back to Work project will take place on Feb. 26 and 27. Attendees will be provided with essential skills needed to make the most of the job market, and find a career that matches their expertise and experience. The Massachusetts Transgender Political Coalition (MTPC), the Boston Alliance of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Youth (BAGLY), the AIDS Action Committee of Massachusetts (AAC), and MassEquality are cosponsors of the event, which will be hosted by the AAC."
Although some in the trans community have been critical of HRC, not without some justice, the organization has take some important steps that have helped transgender employment rights, particularly the Corporate Equality Index. It is nice to see that the organization is continuing to take action to assist the T portion of the LGBT community.
