The Power of Family Acceptance: Loving and Embracing our Transgender Children and Youth

Join us for a hybrid talk entitled The Power of Family Acceptance: Loving and Embracing our Transgender Children and Youth led by Dr. Eunice Avilés Faría, PsyD, LMHC, LPC and TRANScend Massachusetts exhibition participants

Acceptance is about really taking care of our transgender and gender-diverse youth. In this workshop, Dr. Avilés will take us through a journey of how to get to the final goal of accepting our youth and why. The struggles to get there will be validated as we move to work towards greater acceptance of who our trans and gender-diverse youth are so that we can help them navigate, with compassion, the process of safely getting their gender-related needs met.

This event is part of TRANScend Massachusetts which is organized by Transcending Identities director Dr. Eunice Avilés Faría, PsyD, LMHC, LPC, and Transhealth, and funded by the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
