App Helps Transgender People Find Safe Bathrooms

An app created with the assistance of the Ithaca College Center for LGBT Education, Outreach, and Services allows transgender or non-gender-conforming individuals to locate safe single-stall or gender-neutral bathrooms in the City of Ithaca.

The app, called “Pee in Peace,” was developed by an Ithaca-based firm, AWD Productions, and the Southern Finger Lakes Chapter of Planned Parenthood. Ithaca College students working with the LGBT Center helped by checking out public bathrooms to ensure that they are safe, open and clean.
