The Obama Administration told the Washington Blade -- in their Wednesday, April 27, 2011 article White House To Host First Ever Trans Meeting -- that there is going to be a "White House meeting"  where "transgender activists intend to discuss federal policy issues" on Friday, April 29, 2011. The meeting is being described as "the first [meeting] ever held by the Office of Public Engagement to focus solely on trans issues." From Chris Johnson's  Washington Blade article (emphasis added):

    Shin Inouye, a White House spokesperson, said the meeting, which is set to take place Friday at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, will include transgender leaders who work on federal policy.

    "OPE routinely holds meetings with various stakeholders to discuss various policy issues," Inouye said. "Friday's meeting, like most OPE meetings, will be closed press and off the record."
