Additional Information
Agenda: Gender Diversity 201 builds upon fundamental LGBTQ+ training and focuses in on the specific experiences and needs of the Gender Diversity community including transgender, non-binary, gender non-conforming, gender fluid, etc. This training examines some of the health, social and legal disparities facing the gender diverse community with a discussion of vocabulary, definitions and pronouns. We look at how living within a context of discrimination and exposure to systemic aggression and micro-aggressions can lead to internalization and unhealthy behaviors. The subject of bathroom usage is covered with an overview of what guidance federal laws and statutes provide. The workshop uses extensive hands-on activities; large and small group exercises, role playing, situational scenarios as well as individual and one-on-one activities designed to help the participant understand what their past experiences with the subject of gender have been and how that is informing their current outlook. The program concludes with group exercises synthesizing all of the training’s elements, giving participants practical examples of what they can do to provide support and advocacy for the gender diverse community.
