Safe Bathroom Access Campaign (SBAC)
As a lot of folks know all too well, public restrooms are a place
where people who are, or are perceived to be, gender non-conforming
are routinely harassed and all too often assaulted. A whole lot of people wish it was easier to use the
one that matched their identity and that there were more than two
options.
Bathrooms are the single most common public place where the gender
binary is strictly enforced. Bathroom advocacy enables us to get
people to start thinking about gender-segregated spaces because
bathrooms are something that everyone can relate to. In order to
help people better understand how they can advocate and organize
for bathroom safety, TLC created the groundbreaking publication,
Peeing in Peace.
Now that thousands of people have downloaded the guide, TLC has
created workshops to help community groups better understand their
rights and begin thinking about how to launch an advocacy or organizing
campaign. For more information please contact TLC Policy Advocate
Danielle Castro at dcastro@transgenderlawcenter.org or by calling
