Gender transition involves navigating complex social, legal, medical, and mental health systems. It can be hard for the caregivers of Two Spirit, trans, non-binary, and other gender-diverse youth to find the right information. In this webinar, social workers will build capacity to support caregivers of gender-diverse youth as they learn to be gender-affirming and find the services their families need, with a focus on an Alberta-context. Using case examples, we will explore common challenges caregivers face, offer tangible evidence-based strategies, and clarify processes for accessing care.

PolicyWise for Children & Families is a non-profit organization working with diverse communities to improve policies and practices that benefit well-being.

Webinar Key Objectives:

Increase awareness of challenges supportive caregivers face as they navigate their youth’s gender transition.
Build understanding of social, legal, and medical gender transition processes in Alberta and mental health impacts for gender-diverse youth and their caregivers.
Learn evidence-based ways social workers can support gender-diverse youth and their caregivers.
