I wrote last summer about a unique summer camp geared toward trans kids age 8-15 based in New England called Camp Aranu'tiq.   Its name comes from the indigenous Chugach people of Alaska and describes a person who was thought to embody both the male and female spirit. Aranu'tiq people were often revered in Chugach culture and thought to be very lucky because their existence transcended traditional gender boundaries.
