(NEWSCHANNEL 3) – Since the Kalamazoo City Council introduced an anti-discrimination ordinance designed to bring fair housing and employment practices to the LGBT community, it has been a hotly contested issue, with the ordinance passed on repealed several times before landing on the November ballot.

The transgender community has been the most closely scrutinized as the debate roars on. Starting back in May, Newschannel 3 began working with health care professionals, as well as a number of people in the transgender community around West Michigan in an attempt to gain a better understanding of their largely unknown way of life.
