Sponsor/Vendor Packet

Dear TransOHIO Friends, Families and Allies,

We are proud to announce that the 10th Annual TransOhio Trans and Ally Symposium will be held the weekend of April 27-29,2018 in Columbus, Ohio on the campus of Ohio State University. Our theme this year is Ten Years of Progress and The Challenges Ahead. Programing is geared for all segments of the community as well as for those providers of services to the community seeking CEU’s.

Based on our growth trend over the last several years, we expect over 250 participants to enjoy more than 60 workshops covering a variety of topics including:

•Medical Issues and developments
•Healthcare & Safety
•Partners, Spouses & Family
•Legal Issues & Employment
•Youth and aging needs
•Transitional needs
•GNC/Gender non-binary issues / •Intersectionality issues race and color
•Education & Advocacy
•Culture, Media & Arts
•Homelessness
•Mental Health
•Legislative updates

It is no secret that with every passing year, transgender issues and interests find a firmer foothold in the broader LGBTQ push for equality and justice. This past year has seen an enormous push back by Washington against this marginalized community who has fought back vigorously against such injustices. Now more than ever, it is essential to provide a venue for strengthening community support, education and advocacy. TransOhio is a 501(C)(3) organization committed to serving the statewide transgender, gender variant/GNC/GNB and ally communities in such a capacity. Your continued support in these efforts sustains the momentum we build throughout the year, and helps to make a reality this one-of-kind Midwest event. Enclosed you will find several opportunities in which you as an individual, business or community organization can sponsor our 10th Annual TransOhio Trans and Ally Symposium.

Thank you in advance for your continued support of TransOhio and our transgender and GNB/GNC community! For questions, email .

Sincerely,

Melissa M. Alexander
