This week is Gender Odyssey, the country’s largest transgender conference, and it’s right here in Seattle. Founder Aidan Key started the conference in 2001.
“To help me personally find and connect with people who are going through gender transition because I was just starting my transition from female to male,” Key explained.
It has since grown from 300 attendees to about 1,700. And one of the most important additions has been including programming for teens, children, and their families.
