Trans/Gender Variant People In Prison Committee (TIP)

TIP's mission is to end the discrimination, medical neglect, abuse and
violence experienced by transgender and gender variant people, and
people with intersex conditions (TGI) in CA prisons. We are a prison
abolitionist organization, in that while we fight for the immediate
needs of TGI people in prison, we do not advocate for reforms that
further expand the prison industrial complex. We work to improve
conditions for TGI people in prison and to promote public awareness of
the experiences of TGI people in prison, all while prioritizing and
building the leadership of current and former prisoners. Our work
deliberately combines race, class, and ability along with gender and
intersex status, because low-income communities of color are
disproportionately harmed by the prison industrial complex. Thus, TIP
embraces the wide diversity of gender apparent in communities of color,
such as butches, studs, gressors, A.G.s, queens, divas, gay boys, and
others. We are a community organizing project of the Transgender,
Gender Variant and Intersex Justice Project (TGIJP).
