http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/sexist/2010/07/12/weigh-in-on-trans-healthcare-in-dc/Last week, we took a close eye to the lack of transgender data in D.C.'s first LGB Health report. This Wednesday, the D.C. Council will do the same in a public oversight roundtable on the report. Councilmember Yvette Alexander scheduled the meeting after her office "received complaints from various organizations that were troubled by the report's omission of existing research on D.C. transgendered communities, and were concerned that the report fails to acknowledge the current state of the District's transgendered community's health." Details after the jump.
* The roundtable will be held at 2 p.m. this Wednesday, July 14, in Hearing Room 123 of the John A. Wilson Building.
