Exciting News for Trans Clients!
On September 25, 2011, World Professional Organization for Transgender Health (WPATH) announced the launching of the new Standards of Care for the Health of Transsexual, Transgender, and Gender Nonconforming People, 7th edition. The new SOCv7 is a significant revision of the Standards of Care in structure, philosophy, and language that was four years in the making, with a new emphasis on provider responsibility that replaces previous emphasis on client responsibility. If you are a member of the trans and allies community, please let as many people know as possible about this change. If you are working with a medical or mental health professional, please let them know that the new SOC is a significant revision. The document itself will be available on the WPATH Web site on September 26, 2011. A synopsis of changes is available here.

Accessibility
Our goal at the Counseling Hut is to create as ability-neutral a counseling environment as possible. Our facilities are wheelchair-accessible, and we have adaptive equipment on site, such as a Braille embosser, TTY, reading glasses, T-coil neck-loop, etc. Since no one environment can be equally accommodating of every access needs, please contact us if you have specific access needs or concerns. We also welcome input from any community member on how we can improve our accessibility efforts.

Our outgoing phone message no longer has a TTY prompt, as it created problems with some cell phones. If you are calling with a TTY, please wait 38 seconds after dialing and leave a message, with your name and phone number at the end. If you have a voice announcement feature on your TTY, please turn it on before calling, as it will keep the voicemail from hanging up.
