Transgenders This page is devoted to the T in LGBT, as transgenders often find themselves too many times left out of the discussion -- and unincluded in protective legislation such as Delaware's hate-crimes or antidiscrimination laws. |

The Human Rights Campaign Foundation has created a very informative resource on transgenderism and the social and legal challenges transgenders face, such as finding and keeping jobs, locating housing and using public accommodations, staying safe in their homes and communities, obtaining critical health care, securing legal documents consistent with their gender identity, having their relationships respected and protected, raising their children, safely attending school and being treated fairly and humanely in the criminal justice system.
