Transgender people are defined as people who feel they are a different gender than the sex they were born as. Job Corps is a job training facility where the students must live for 5 days a week day and night. At job corps the dormitories are separated by gender.
The current Job corps policy concerning transgender individuals is to place them in the dormitories that match their body parts.
This policy singles out transgender individuals and makes them a target for violence, bullying, and increases the likelihood of Suicide. It must be changed.
We, the undersigned, petition Guthrie Job Corps to change the policy they have on transgender people to allow pre-operative Transgender people to stay in the dormitories that match the gender they are on the inside.
Under the current policy, transgender people who feel that they are women are being placed in men's dormitories and vis versa.
