Trans & Two Spirit Name Change Clinic at Keshen Goodman Public Library, 330 Lacewood Drive
The decision to legally change a name or sex indicator is an important step in the gender transition of many trans and Two Spirit people. Accessing the services needed to make this happen, however, can present obstacles. In an affirming, private space, 2SLGBTQIA+ participants can find help with any stage of this process. Specially trained hosts will provide information and assist with filling in the applications.
Volunteers with Dalhousie Legal Aid will be available to witness signatures at no cost.
Online registration required
7 to 9 p.m.
