Workshop Description

As we embark on the journey of transition with our trans child, we may be focused solely on that child, but after the initial intensity, we become more aware of other family members, their needs and reactions, and the shift in family dynamics. How can we support our non-trans children at the outset and through our trans child’s journey? How do we respect and make space for the other parent’s approach to supporting our child? How do we handle sharing information about our trans child to grandparents and extended family? Join us as we explore these topics and share strategies for navigating these significant relationships in ways that honor your trans child and the rest of the family.
