If you work for a law enforcement officer or are a civilian support staff person at a credentialed law
enforcement agency, this can be a place of support for you. Welcome to our home on the Internet.
The purpose of TCOPS is to provide information, education, support, and networking opportunities
to members of the police community dealing with Transsexualism behind the badge.
TCOPS was born out of the efforts of Dr. Tom Whetstone's study on transsexual cops in the
workplace. His work brought together deputies and police officers from throughout the country to
discuss their personal and professional experiences with gender and law enforcement. Dr.
Whetstone continues to provide support and insight to TCOPS and is involved in conducting further
research relating to transgender law enforcement officers and their lives and experiences.
TCOPS also offers support and associated resources to police administrators through our Board of
Directors and Advisors, which include law enforcement agency administrators and department
heads, psychological professionals, academics having focus on conflict and resolution, and law
enforcement personnel that have successfully transitioned genders on the job and who have worked
with those planning gender transition within a police environment.
