FLINT - A meeting on Saturday, May 22, set the stage for a new LGBT group that would focus on female-to-male transgender people. The group, started by Charlie Ford, is hoping to provide resources and a social haven for a group of people that Ford feels is often overlooked in local transgender groups.

Ford intends for this group to be a mid-Michigan chapter of FtM International, an established organization that caters to the various needs to FtM and female-born individuals. Last Saturday's meeting, which took place at the Hollywood Diner in Flint, Mich., acted as a gauge for what people want to focus on in the group.
