B1 Wrapping with Trans* Youth (and their Families and Supports), Part 1

Heather Marino Kibbee, John Bucher

This presentation will explore the experience of transgender and gender variant youth by: shifting traditionally understood constructs of gender, understanding disparities in health/mental health outcomes for trans*youth, learning skills needed to be a “visible” ally for trans* youth, learning skills needed to support families and teams within the context of Wraparound services, and learning how to understand the importance of connecting trans* youth to supportive resources.
