Trans Affirming Actions - March 12, 2025

Session Overview:
As the new administration takes office, transgender and non-binary people and our loved ones are collectively facing the most politically challenging, deeply uncertain, and terrifying time of our lives. Fred Rogers famously said when there are scary things in the news to look for the helpers, and trans folks across the US are taking note of the individuals and organizations that are standing in solidarity with trans communities to know who we can rely on in the months and years ahead. This training is specifically designed to offer concrete guidance for cisgender allies who are wanting to better understand how trans & non-binary people are being impacted in the evolving climate, find ways to be the helpers, and identify opportunities for engaging in meaningful trans advocacy.

Continuing Education (CE) Credits
This program meets the requirements of the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT) and is approved for 1.5 hours of CE credits. These CE credits may be applied toward AASECT certification and renewal of certification. AASECT CEs are accepted by many mental health and medical credentialing bodies – please check with your board about how AASECT credits can be transferred. (Each board is different, and we would never want to misguide you, so we are unable to advise about whether or not your board will accept AASECT credits.) These CE credits may be applied toward AASECT certification and renewal of certification. There is a $15 CE processing fee for this course. You must register for CEs in order to receive them for this offering. Before you check out, you will be provided with the option to add CEs to your registration. (It is located as an additional option below each of the registration levels.)
