THE U.S. TRANS SURVEY LAUNCHES SUMMER 2015!!!! I've signed up! Its time to be heard!!
"ABOUT THE SURVEY
The U.S. Trans Survey is the new name of the largest survey ever devoted to the lives and experiences of trans people. It is the follow up to the groundbreaking National Transgender Discrimination Survey (NTDS), which was developed by the National LGBTQ Task Force and NCTE and released in the 2011 report called Injustice at Every Turn.
The NTDS has been the source for data on trans people and has provided critical information for advocates, policymakers, media, and academics with over 15,000 media hits. The USTS will be conducted every 5 years to learn about trans people's experiences over time, how things are changing, and what needs to be done to improve the lives of trans people.
The USTS is a survey for all trans identities, including trans, genderqueer, and non-binary people, and will be the largest and most diverse trans sample to date. The USTS is our community's survey: the USTS data set and results will be available to community advocates, organizations, and researchers for years to come."

Was I discriminated against for being trans? Yes
Does it bother me? No
Do I want somebody to do something (whatever that something is) about it? No
I took some kind of survey years ago (maybe 10 or more years ago). It didn't make any difference then and it won't make any difference now. I don't want to be a negative nancy but I don't see the purpose.

I wonder if there's any point in me participating since I haven't personally experienced anything significantly negative related to being trans? Would my input be useful in any way?

I tried to sign but it did not work, got a "fatal error" message (not my first now that I think of it ::) ). Well in all seriousness I'll just call the number and register that way, because I have no idea what a fatal buffer error is anyway. Looks good though and I'll share it with my trans support group.

My only concern with this is that then there is a fairly large list of transgender people living in the US that someone somewhere has access to... Maybe I'm just paranoid.
I may end up signing up; thanks for posting this.

Sorry i didnt see this earlier. This is what it said to me.
Thank you for making your voice count by taking the 2015 U.S. Trans Survey.
The survey closed on September 21st, so we are no longer collecting survey responses.
We know that you're excited to learn what we found. Our team is working hard to prepare the data for analysis over the next several months. We anticipate that findings will be available in mid-2016.
