The 2017 Black Trans Advocacy Conference (BTAC) is set for August 19th from 9 am to 11 pm at the Radisson Hotel Baltimore Downtown-Inner Harbor (101 West Fayette Street, Baltimore). The event is the joint work of Black Trans Advocacy, Black Transmen, and Black Transwomen.

“We’re honored and excited to bring the BTAC experience to the Maryland / DC region,” said Merrick Moses, of Black Trans Advocacy. “We’re here to serve the people and empower folks to be the change they want to see.”

The conference is free to all registered guests, and welcomes all transgender and gender non-conforming people and allies to find support for their transition, to build valuable relationships, to expand their impact and have a great time with likeminded peers.
