Participants will have the opportunity to move past surface level approaches of support to nuanced and critical framing. Topics examined will include intersectional trans frameworks, colonization and trans oppression, structural failures (and how to move past them), trans embodiment, and holistic wellness for trans folks.There will be two modalities; an in-person (123 SE Harvard St, Minneapolis, MN 55455) with lunch provided in the Beacon Room as well as a virtual option. If possible we'd love to have folks in-person but will provide a virtual option that will be intentionally curated for those in attendance, facilitated by the OED Education Team.

please note: the Beacon Room is equipt with a HVAC System and HEPA Filters to aid in cleaner air

If you have any questions or concerns please reach out to gsc@umn.edu.
We look forward to learning with you all on Thursday, June 18th!
