The Washington Blade will be in Milwaukee next week covering the Republican National Convention, which is expected to include events and discussions concerning LGBTQ issues.
GRACE, the gender research advocacy council and education, will host a media availability at the RNC next week with Alaina Kupec, its founder and president, and Executive Director Jennifer Williams.
Williams is a Republican city councilmember representing Trenton, N.J., and the first transgender woman elected to a municipal office in the state.
Kupec, who is also trans, is a Navy veteran who has served in executive level positions at biopharmaceutical companies. GRACE was founded to “assist other groups in addressing misinformation about transgender people,” as Kupec told Bay Area Reporter.
