U.S. PENITENTIARY

Not too many people can say that they've gone to the penitentiary and had a good time.

However, Tracee said that she was happy to report that her experiences at the United States Penitentiary in Atlanta, GA during their T.L.G.B.Q.I. Pride Month event was unforgettable.

According to her, the Trans Cultural Competency Training that she’d delivered was well attended and everyone seemed eager, willing and open to her presentation.

Tracee thanked organizers Roz Colyer and Erica Hawthorne for making her feel so welcomed, also sharing that it was really nice and rewarding that her service to community has been acknowledged, appreciated as per the Letter of Appreciation that she’d received from the Prison System.
