Trans-Inclusive Care in Social Work Practice

3 CEUs -  may be counted as cultural responsiveness CEUs

Presenter: Emerson Ball, MSW, LGSW (he/they)

Come explore the role of language and important considerations for creating more trans-inclusive spaces. We will learn ways to directly influence our immediate practice and environment to more fully support trans and gender non-conforming (GNC) folks. We will also look at how cisnormativity, transphobia, and erasure have influenced our practice, and develop strategies to push back on these systemic forces. Join us in identifying areas for growth as trans/GNC allies internally and within systems in our immediate proximity.
