Moving Past Inclusion into Affirmation, Cultivating Spaces of Belonging and Allyship — Day Long Institute
"Moving Past Inclusion into Affirmation: Cultivating Spaces of Belonging and Allyship"
Friday, October 18, 2024
We are thrilled to announce a powerful day of learning, featuring the inspiring and dynamic Lex Horwitz (they/he), a renowned queer, non-binary transgender Jewish LGBTQ+ Educator, Consultant, and Public Speaker.
This session, tailored for our Children & Family Health Institute employees, will deepen our understanding of gender identity and move us from basic inclusion to active affirmation.
Lex will kick off the day by sharing their remarkable journey as the first out transgender athlete in their sport, paving the way for a transformative experience. The day will be divided into two powerful modules: The first will concentrate on moving from inclusion to affirmation, equipping participants to celebrate and validate the experiences of transgender and non-binary individuals. The second module will expand on this foundation, focusing on how to create affirming spaces through allyship and community support, ensuring that everyone feels empowered and valued.
Join us as we take meaningful steps towards creating a truly inclusive and supportive environment for all.
