Love Makes A Family: Supporting LGBTQ+ Youth and Parents
With the continued fight for cultural acceptance of transgender individuals, youth are coming out as transgender at ever-increasing rates. Learn how to support these youth and their families from the discovery process to early social interventions and possible puberty suppression and transition.
Opening Rainbow Doors: An Interactive Look at LGBTQ+ Patient Communities
An advanced workshop masquerading as a 101 session, we will cover common phrases and terms used by the LGBTQ+ community, delve into medical barriers faced by the LGBTQ+ community, and will explain emerging concepts (pansexuality, gender fluidity, gender-neutral pronouns, and intersex experiences). The session closes with hands-on examples of LGBTQ+inclusive actions providers and support staff can integrate right away.
Beyond Pink and Blue: Understanding Transgender Patient Communities
Medical providers of all kinds will inevitably end up working with transgender patient populations. Are you ready to understand, support, and welcome this underserved community? Learn the best language to use when referring to trans patients, master cultural humility to improve patient trust and communication, and utilize concrete frameworks for using gender-inclusive language throughout all of your clinic’s programs and services.
Seahorse Dads: Understanding Transgender Pregnancy
Transgender pregnancy isn’t new, nor is it experimental or dangerous. Dig into over a decades’ worth of data on transgender pregnancy, learn about the impacts of testosterone on fertility, hear stories about trans pregnancy experiences, and master concrete inclusion skills so the full depth of the trans community feels (and is!) welcomed into your work.
They/Them/Theirs: Understanding Gender in the Workplace
More and more people are coming out as non-binary, or otherwise need unique considerations around their names and pronouns. But some employees struggle with this shift, not understanding the importance of respectful pronoun usage or simply finding it difficult to adjust their language to keep up with the times. This shame-free workshop teaches the ins and outs of proper pronoun usage at work, providing an interactive journey through the what, why, and how of inclusive pronoun practices.
Beyond Mommies and Daddies: Transgender Fertility Considerations
It seems that every week, new data about transgender fertility comes out. As transgender language and community considerations continue to evolve, so do the medical realities of what is possible for fertility preservation, regaining fertility, and pregnancy. This session is designed to educate learners about the ins and outs of transgender fertility considerations. This engaging session will provide evidence-based information designed to increase learners’ knowledge of the topic.
Gay and Grey: Supporting LGBTQ Elders
Our elders deserve our very best. Are they getting it?
If you’re providing support to seniors, you may wonder how to tailor your services for LGBTQ+ clients. This session will help identify the common barriers experienced by LGBTQ+ elders accessing the services they need to live with independence and dignity.
Beyond Rainbow Flags: LGBTQ+ Inclusion in Fertility
More and more LGBTQ+ people are pursuing fertility treatment in order to build their families and prepare for the future. But fertility organizations often lag behind what the community needs. LGBTQ+ people find that paperwork doesn’t represent them, the language used online and in the office isn’t inclusive, and providers aren’t always sure what adjustments need to be made for these modern patients.
You Don’t Know What You Don’t Know: Cultivating Cultural Agility
Cultural humility teaches us that we can never truly understand cultures that are different from ours, but we can seek to be open and curious and (dare I say it) humble when working with populations we don’t personally identify with.
Keeping Your Cool: Effective Allyship Engagement
All too often, individuals who want to create inclusive environments struggle to engage effectively across lines of difference. Discussions can get heated while everyone tries to keep their cool while discussing issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion, and it can be difficult to know how to navigate multiple points of view.
