"We are very excited to be staging this year's conference right next door to our nation's capital at such a pivotal time in our country's history," noted Denise Leclair, Executive Director of IFGE. "We believe it is very significant that the entire transgender community will be gathering in the Washington, D.C. area just a mere two weeks after the presidential inauguration," Leclair continued. "2009 is a critical year for our community in terms of securing the same employment rights and protections enjoyed by the rest of society, and we firmly believe that this year's conference will create momentum for change that will carry through the rest of the year."
