About this Event
Join us for an evening with transgender advocate and educator Ben Greene as he discusses his latest book: My Child is Trans, Now What? A Joy-Centered Approach to Support. In his book, Greene breaks the mold by offering a judgement-free guide to people across generations, from millennial parents to members of older generations who may not have had previous positive exposure to the trans community. He explains what to expect, what systems exist to support trans youth, and what loved ones can do to help with humor, personal stories, and compassion.
