Virginia Transgender Health Initiative Survey

[ftmichael.livejournal.com]

From an E-mail.

Transmitted via T*Families:
===================

Are you a Transgender resident of Virginia?
Have you ever had problems with your health care?
Have you ever wanted to do something about it?
Here's an opportunity:

The Virginia Transgender Health Initiative Study (THIS) is a survey sponsored by the Virginia Department of Health and the Virginia HIV Community Planning Committee, to assist them in planning to better provide health care and social services to Transgender people living in Virginia. It's no secret that many trans people have enormous difficulties getting good health care, and THIS will help VDH design health provider trainings and better allocate prevention resources for trans Virginians. It's important that we obtain the participation of as many different trans people as possible, so that the data will be fully representative of all regions and subgroups of the transgender population of the Commonwealth.

The survey can be taken online at http://www.srl.vcu.edu/THIS/ . Your privacy will be protected and confidentiality is assured. There is a section at the end of the survey for those who wish to receive a $15 incentive for taking the survey, but you need not provide that info to participate.

THIS is an opportunity to help yourself and others improve health care delivery for trans people, so please consider participating. Virginia residents only - thanks.
