My case manager wanted me to do some research on WPATH. I was wondering if any one knew where I can get some clear knowledge on organization. (I have already visited the website)

Have you read the WPATH guidelines?

Every transitioning person should read them.
Have you read my short story The Eve of Triumph?

She'll still need to follow the WPATH standards at some point if she wants surgery..

or find Informed Consent advocating therapists who will write letters that a WPATH Surgeon will accept. They are out there.

To the OP, this very site has a great Wiki that covers WPATH quite nicely.

Umm...do you want info on the WPATH standards, or on the organization itself?

I can't help with either, but perhaps a clarification will help another.

After reading a little more I'm leaning towards learning about the Standards and guidelines.
Also Thank you all for your replies. I'll defiantly check out the wiki.

It feels nice to be referred to as the proper gender, doesn't it?

To save you searching for it, hon. :)

Thank you, Sephirah, I don't know why people link to offsite information so often when we usually have it right here already. Also, thanks, Wiki Staff! Hugs, Devlyn
