Event Description
The Southern Comfort Conference (SCC) is a major transgender conference that takes place annually in Atlanta, Georgia, since 1991.
SCC features seminars, events, speeches by prominent people in the LGBT community, numerous vendors catering to transgender and transsexual people, and more, and is known as the largest, most famous, and pre-eminent such conference in the United States. The organization offers scholarships to some attendees.
The conference provided the title for and is featured heavily in the 2001 documentary Southern Comfort, about the life and death of Robert Eads, whose goal in 1998 was to live long enough to attend the conference. Eads succeeded, and his speech at the conference is featured in the documentary. In honor of the memory of Eads, the conference offers health exams through the annual "Robert Eads Health Project.
The conference has built a reputation as a safe place for LGBT people with a familial atmosphere, and aims at inclusiveness. It attracts people from all over the United States, offering the opportunity for social and other interaction.

Hey everyone, Chloe and I are looking forward to meeting and greeting all of you at our PINKessence Reception, SCC 2012.
I'm excited to share with you a proof pic our free gift for everyone who attends. This pretty ball point pen not only writes beautifully smooth (I love it and use it everyday at work) but it also doubles as a small flashlight!! What a great wat to show your PE pride and commemorate your SCC adventure!
See you all there!! :D
