Looking forward to reading through and learning from the TransForming Inclusion guide. Thank you to @browntransfeels, who wrote the guide and moderated yesterday's discussion, and @leewayfound for making this resource available, and to everyone who contributed.
Yesterday, @leewayfound launched a critically important resource, TransForming Inclusion: An Organizational Guide. It includes shared concepts and language, best practices, and tools for inclusion and affirmation of trans and gender nonconforming people. https://t.co/EDxC6zZCc2
