I have agreed that this survey can be posted on Susan's. It has been cleared by the appropriate ethics committee. Participation is purely voluntary.

I hope you will consider adding your voice to my dissertation research. The survey for my dissertation is entitled Redefining Trans* Persistence and Desistence Toward A More Inclusive Account of Trans* Populations is now LIVE.
The purpose of this project is to examine from a social justice approach what, if any, impact access to surgical transition procedures have on trans* gender identity. I will be seeking to understand the following:
• The importance of access to surgical transition procedures on trans* gender identity?
• What barriers trans* folks experience related access to surgical transitions procedures, including:
• health,
• race/ethnicity,
• religious and/or spiritual beliefs, and
• socioeconomic status.
Participants will have the opportunity to identify other barriers as well.
I need your help in two ways:
• Please take the survey. Participation will take 15 - 20 minutes and will involve responding to two brief questionnaires presented online. All data related to your participation will be kept anonymous.
• Please spread the word with as many folks and/or groups that you think might be interested. To participate in this study, you must be at least 18 years of age, self-identify as a trans* individual (this is meant to be inclusive of both binarily identified folks and gender nonconforming folks), live in the United States, and read and comprehend English.
NOTE: I am especially interested in getting more participation from and perspectives of trans* folks of color. I understand there are many valid and historic reasons for communities of color to distrust research. As a result, however, most research primarily represent those in the dominant and privileged majority.
