A media release from Indiana Transgender Rights Advocacy Alliance (INTRAA) and Indiana Equality (IE), entitled Transgender Hoosier and Her Supporters Bring New Era to Muncie Hospital; Civil Rights Groups and Ball Memorial Leadership in Consultation to Build New Future:

    Indiana resident Erin Vaught's advocacy and strength are paving the way for a new future for competent and accessible health care for Transgender Hoosiers. After a harrowing experience in the Emergency Department of Muncie's Ball Memorial Hospital on July 18th, Ms. Vaught reached out to the Indiana Transgender Rights Advocacy Alliance (INTRAA) and Indiana Equality (IE) for help in making sure that she, her family, and her community would never face barriers to health care at Ball Memorial again. In response, Ball Memorial's management team has identified an aggressive plan to improve services to all patients, including LGBT patients and their families.
