Southern Comfort Transgender Conference

The informational forum welcomed hundreds of attendees for a series of workshops, seminars, and networking events hosted at the Riverside Hotel in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Conference activities included legal and medical presentations, as well as informative sessions on family, relationships, sexuality and much more. During the conference, participants had the chance to experience Greater Fort Lauderdale’s stunning natural scenery, exciting nightlife and exquisite dining. Make plans to join us in 2020!
