Trans Identification in Alberta: A brief analysis to Alberta Human Services [Vital Statistics Act]

TESA engages in advocacy and education in three primary areas: government, outreach, and community development. TESA submitted this report to Alberta Human Services Associate Minister Sandra Jansen, Family and Community Safety, regarding changes to the Alberta Vital Statistics Act and concerns regarding necessary changes left yet undone in both this Act and other acts, regulations, and policies.

TESA met together with Associate Minister Sandra Jansen on May 15, 2014. To see a Twiitter post and photo taken during this meeting, click here. Please see below for correspondence related to this report from the Honourable Associate Minister Sandra Jansen (Human Services) and Honourable Minister Jeff Johnson (Education).
