Trans 101 Workshop

The Trans 101 workshop builds off of the LGBTQ Resource Center’s LGBTQ+ 101 and Safe Zone workshops to offer a training specifically focused on transgender issues.

• Explain the difference between sex, gender identity, gender expression and sexuality.
• Correctly define “transgender” and “gender non-conforming.”
• Identify words or phrases that are derogatory to transgender people and should be avoided.
• Name at least 2 challenges many trans people experience before and after coming out.
• Identify 3 emotions a trans person might experience during their coming out process.
