LGBTQ Advocates To Respond To White House Plan to Define Sex
A gathering will be held Friday at North Bay's Spahr Center to discuss community support and action steps.

NORTH BAY, CA – LGBTQ advocates will gather Friday in San Rafael to respond to the White House's proposal to define gender as biological under Title IX, a civil rights law that prohibits gender-based discrimination.
The gathering will begin at 4 p.m. and last until 6 p.m. at The Spahr Center at 910 Irwin St.
According to center officials, attendees will have the chance to take action to support trans and non-binary people, who likely would be affected by the president's proposal.
