Gender-Affirming Practice

What will we cover?

This webinar is focussed on providing identity-affirming care and support to trans and gender diverse (TGD) community members. It is specifically targeted to those working in allied health, medical / healthcare, peer worker, and support worker roles.

Throughout the webinar, we will explore key concepts, considerations, reflection points, and practical ideas / adjustments, which are foundational to making your understandings and practice more inclusive, accessible, affirming, and safe for TGD folk. All aspects will be grounded in person-centred, trauma-informed, intersectional, de-pathologising, anti-colonial, anti-oppressive frameworks, informed by up-to-date research / evidence, lived experience, and community knowledge. Resources to support post-webinar reflection and learning will also be provided to all attendees.

Key topics will include:

Understanding gender diversity (more nuanced than you might think!)
Unique stresses, health issues, and risks faced by TGD folk
Marginalised, intersecting identities, bodies, and experiences
What safe, affirming, and inclusive support is (and isn't)
Therapeutic / practice considerations
Agency, advocacy, and allyship

Folks' diverse experiences and insights are valued, and there will be room for questions / reflections as well. The presentation will run for 2hrs (or a wee bit more), and there will be approximately 20 minutes for Q&A / discussion at the end.

An assessment quiz can be provided afterwards to those who would like one, so that the webinar can count towards 2.5 hours of active CPD.

I really look forward to exploring these areas with you, and appreciate you taking the time to support TGD community within this!
