Free GLSEN Webinar: Expanding Understanding: Supporting Trans & Nonbinary Students

Thu, Nov. 19th 6-8pm EST

According to GLSEN research, compared to other students in the LGBTQ community, transgender and genderqueer students face more hostile school climates. So, too, do gender non-conforming (GNC) students, whose gender expression does not align to narrow cultural gender expectations. In this training, statistics on national data for LGBTQ student experiences will be shared, with specific attention to the experiences of trans and gender expansive students. Participants will explore the constraints of the gender binary and provide an intersectional approach to genderism. Educators will leave with a better understanding of trans and gender expansive student experiences, along with resources such as a trans model school policy, and a framework for creating supportive learning environments for trans and GNC students.
