The 2nd Annual Transgender Career Expo 2008!
Friday, October 3rd 2008
Crown Plaza Ravinia, Atlanta, GA
Bringing together a large array of organizations and employers, in order to create what has grown to be one of the most important events in Transgender history is no small task. In 2007, for the first time, a small group of dedicated people worked tirelessly to make the first ever Transgender Career Expo an unprecedented success.
The incredible vision and forward thinking of the participating companies and organizations supporting the issue of equality and opportunity for all people, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity, is a true testament to the core values of these organizations and should not go unrecognized.
In addition to the companies who sent representatives to the First Annual Transgender Career Expo 2007, efforts are ongoing to bring together an even greater number of companies and organizations to make one of the most fundamental issues in anyone's life - a satisfying career with a sustainable income - a reality for all people, regardless of age, sex, race, religious affiliation, sexual orientation or gender identity.
The Career Expo is free to any individual who desires to participate and wishes to engage with industry leaders. For organizations wishing to participate in the Career Expo, please send an email to:
