Atlanta Phoenix Award winner, GA House of Representatives Resolution recipient, Former Atlanta Citizen Review Board Chairwoman, Certified Peer Counselor, published author, and Trans Human/Civil Rights Advocate Tracee McDaniel is motivated by a strong desire to ensure that all Trans, Gender Non-Conforming and Non-Binary people also receive justice, civil and human rights protections. Tracee was born and raised in South Carolina. She credits her strength and determination to her family’s unconditional love and support throughout her life, which also enabled her to have stepped knee-deep into advocacy.
Tracee established 501(c)(3) Tax Exempt Juxtaposed Center for Transformation, Inc in 2007 to use as a vehicle for spreading the good news about Trans, Gender Non-Conforming and Non-Binary people, while also celebrating our resiliency being here since the beginning of time, existing in every country and on every continent inhabited by mankind. Tracee never apologizes for always putting the “T” first, believing that human rights are trans rights, trans rights are human rights, and our visibility saves lives.
