Transgender Economic Empowerment Initiative celebrates a milestone with its 100th job placement. The program, which launched July 1, 2007, announced the job placement of "Christine," a transgender woman in her mid 50s, who is now employed full-time with benefits as an administrative assistant in an established, nationally active nonprofit.

TEEI is the country's first coordinated public-private effort to transform the economic health of transgender people and their families.
