Virtual Legal Name and Gender Marker Change Clinic (Pro Bono Opportunity)

Please join ACC SoCal and Bet Tzedek for an afternoon of pro bono service to assist individuals with their Legal Name and/or Gender Marker Change (LNGMC) petition.  Your time will help transgender and gender nonconforming clinic attendees who regularly face accessibility barriers because their identify documents incorrectly describe them as someone else.

 Following a training session with Bet Tzedek staff attorneys, volunteers will compile information from attendees in order to complete petitions for filing at local courthouses.  With an issued court order, pro se litigants will be empowered to update their personal records to reflect their true identity.
