Affirming settings
save lives
When your organization, department, or company takes steps to create trans-affirming settings, you make it safer for more community members to participate. Get a feel for why it matters, explore practical approaches for your specific setting, and consider how to navigate challenges along the way. Informative, practical, and inspiring, these trainings build awareness, skills, and connection. Participants leave feeling energized and motivated to ensure that everyone feels
affirmed and included.
Navigating this challenging time
with a lens on history
In this unprecedented era, trans people are experiencing unconscionable harm on multiple levels, including but not limited to: restrictions on accurate identification documents, employment, healthcare, education, travel, and a lack of protection from discrimination. As an outcome, the community is experiencing an escalation of interpersonal, organizational, and institutional harm. Providers, educators, and others can help by providing affirming services and referrals.
Community members can develop strategies for staying grounded, drawing strength from our history, and reimagining our future.
