Training Fee: $70

Approved for 7 Commission-Approved Hours

Presenters: Lee Giordano and Quinton Reynolds

Training Description

It is well established that trans and gender non-conforming people (tgnc) experience violence at rates much higher than mainstream populations. It is also true that tgnc people perpetuate intimate partner violence, yet many intervention programs are ill equipped to incorporate trans and gender non-conforming people into their classes. In this training, gender identity will be examined to improve interventions with all program participants. Tools and strategies will also be provided to create inclusive and affirming spaces to engage trans and gender non-conforming participants in intervention classes.

 

Training Objectives:

By the end of the training, participants will be better able to:

  •     Contextualize intimate partner violence committed by trans and gender non-conforming people
  •     Define important terminology related to working with trans and gender non-conforming people
  •     Implement practices to create inclusive and affirming intervention programs for TGNC people
  •     Describe transphobia, its manifestations, and its effects on trans and gender non-conforming people
