-
MVTGA has but one
primary purpose – that each transgendered person may experience personal
growth, acceptance and affirmation.
-
MVTGA
is a fellowship of people from anywhere on the transgendered continuum.
Labels are not important. We
accept the sincere transgendered person regardless of race, creed, gender,
religion, age, sexual orientation, or gender identity or expression.
-
The only requirement
for attendance is a desire to grow as a transgendered person.
-
Our meetings are
conducted in a circle. One
person is to speak at a time. We
share our experience, strength and hope with each other so that each may
grow to wholeness. No cross
talk or interruptions are permitted.
-
The group’s common
welfare comes first. There is
but one ultimate authority – group conscience and consensus. Our leaders
are but trusted servants; they do not govern.
-
MVTGA is a safe
group. Anonymity and
confidentiality are essential. What
is shared in the group, stays in the group.
-
MVTGA is a
support/social group and not a professional or therapeutic group.
However, from time to time MVTGA may invite professionals to share
educational information with the group.
-
MVTGA is autonomous
except in matters affecting the greater transgendered community as a
whole.
