The Transgender Legal Defense & Education Fund (TLDEF) is asking members of the trans community in the New York City area to come to a first-of-its-kind town hall meeting with officials from the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD).

The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the launch of HUD's groundbreaking national study of housing discrimination against LGBT people and families. HUD wants to inform the community about the study and get community input to help shape it.
