The special interest group was formed during the ACSP 2019 Annual Conference in Greenville, SC as Inclusion, but recently renamed as Queers & Trans in Planning (QT-IG). QT-IG requires openness to the intersectional nature of identity, acknowledging the different experiences of people along the lines of race, class, ethnicity, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, religion and life experience.
