Bali White Inspires
New York City LGBT Pride is June 28! This year, Housing Works is especially proud of our Coordinator of Transgender Services Bali White.
Bali is being honored this week by City Comptroller Bill Thompson for spearheading our pioneering services for HIV-positive and HIV-negative transgender New Yorkers, a population especially hard hit by the AIDS epidemic.
Read more about Bali and Housing Works’ efforts to push New York State to pass GENDA , legislation that would prohibit discrimination on the basis of gender identity and expression.
