Documents indicated with an asterisk(*) are available for community organizations to print, distribute and -- in the cases of trans-related and ally organizations outside Alberta -- adapt for their use (note: anything that will retain the albertatrans.org name and logo, i.e. the PDF brochures, should not be altered, but the text can be copied and used in other documents). Publications linked to off-site and not indicated with an asterisk are subject to those organizations' or websites' reprint policies.

AlbertaTrans.org does not pretend to speak for all trans identities, we simply do our best for those we understand, to the best of our knowledge and ability. We welcome other opinions and other voices, and would be happy to include any additional trans-pertinent writings here, provided they are not condemning of other transgender identities and advocate safe, responsible, consensual and respectful living.
