1	Is Your T Written in Invisible Ink? - Transgender Inclusion A Guide for LGBT Aged Care programs. "This checklist is designed to be only a first step in determining whether your program, publication, or policy has written its “T” in disappearing ink. There are many more questions that should be considered and issues addressed before a program should rest on its inclusion laurels (if you believe we should ever rest on such matters). But it’s a start."	18

5	Trans Inclusion in Universities This manual was written to provide resources for students, student governments, and student organizations who are allies or want to be allies to transgender students on college campuses. It is imperative that student organizations and student governments take proactive steps to be trans-inclusive in every aspect of their operations. It is also important that trans students be developed as leaders and have the opportunity to add their voices to the student movement. It is our hope that this manual will address some of these issues. This information is not intended to provide a full-fledged course in trans theory, but to provide a starting point for student organizers interested in making their organizations more trans-inclusive.	35
