This workshop is aimed at service providers who work with survivors of domestic violence / intimate partner violence (and/or other healthcare settings), and who are looking to learn more about supporting survivors who identify as transgender, gender non-conforming, and/or non-binary (TGNCNB). Participants will briefly review the differences between gender, sex, and sexuality, as well as research on the barriers to healthcare currently faced by TGNCNB survivors of DV/IPV. Participants will also have the chance to discuss best practices for supporting TGNCNB survivors, as well as examine personal biases around gender and sexuality, culminating in a series of roleplay exercises. The training will be 90 minutes via Zoom, including 15 minutes of Q&A.
This workshop will be facilitated by Delilah Seligman, Manager of Training Programs at the NYC Anti-Violence Project.
