Philadelphia Trans-Health Conference

When is the conference?

The next Mazzoni Center Philadelphia Trans-Health Conference will be held from May 29-31, 2008 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center.

What is this conference about?

This conference will bring together transgender and gender-variant people, partners, allies, and healthcare providers for three days of workshops, keynotes, discussion, and networking. Because quality accessible, respectful healthcare is linked to self-determining our bodies and identities in a larger world, this conference seeks to explore themes related to enjoying rich, full lives, and building movements and communities for justice.

Given the success of last year's conference and the feedback we received from attendees, we are continuing to offer the conference over three days.

What is Provider's Day?

The first day, Thursday, is Provider's Day. It will focus on provider training--discussions and presentations that help local practitioners and educators better understand our perspectives and needs.

What are Community Days?

The last two days, Friday and Saturday, are community days and will be focused on transpeople and our health concerns. While there is a small fee for providers, Community Days are free for all attendees.
