We
know that intolerance for others is fueled by a lack of knowledge or understanding,
and far too often myths, distortion of facts, and unchecked imaginations
guide public perceptions.
Fear
of the unknown also contributes to the misunderstanding or discrimination.
We
know that any lie, or misleading statement that is allowed to go unchallenged
becomes a truth.
Many
entities across the Commonwealth and the Nation are distorting the truth
about a wide range of targets, and the transgender and LGBTQ communities
are squarely in the bullseye.
To
overcome these negatives, Trans Advocacy Pennsylvania with its speakers
bureau and associates will attempt to educate the public.
Trans
Advocacy Pennsylvania provides guest speakers, brochures and materials
to businesses, education institutions, churches, civic groups and any other
organization that would request our assistance.
Trans
Advocacy Pennsylvania also conducts public education by being present at
various community
PRIDE
events.
