The transverse degrees of freedom of partons inside the proton are a highlight of the future experimental program in Hall B at Jefferson Lab. This program will include measuring numerous single- and double-spin asymmetries using a transversely polarized proton target and the large acceptance detector CLAS12. However, a number of technical difficulties associated with the polarized target must be addressed before these measurements can commence. In these proceedings I examine two promising target design solutions and explain why they will not work. Finally, I offer a compromise solution that will permit transverse spin measurements using the Forward Detector package of CLAS12.
