Gender in Context: An Intersectional Approach

Catalog description

This course will explore the intersectionality of trans-identity within larger community systems, and how that relates to mental health. Systems of privilege and oppression that have resulted in transphobia and cissexism will be explored. Students will also develop skills to build safe communities and develop trans-affirmative resources. Particular areas of focus may be in family law and family policy, working with groups of individuals and families, and in collaborating with multiple systems levels in clinical work.
