Part of the Solution: Gender-Integrated Sexual Assault Support Groups

Widespread practices of holding only single-gender support groups deprive many transgender, non-binary, and male survivors of opportunities to benefit from these core services. This webinar outlines ways that advocates can create more inclusive sexual assault support groups and extend services to more survivors.

Transgender People, Intimate Partner Violence, and the Legal System

Leigh Goodmark’s article, "Transgender People, Intimate Partner Abuse, and the Legal System," is the first law review article to concentrate specifically on intimate partner abuse and the transgender community. In this webinar, Leigh Goodmark presents this research, and Terra Slavin and michael munson comment on critical analysis in the article and reflect its utility for practitioners and victims.

Tips for Allies of Transgender People

The page includes a list of tips for anyone working to become a better ally to transgender people. The list is not exhaustive and cannot include all the "right" things to do or say because often there is no one "right" answer to every situation.

Questionable Questions About Transgender Identity

This resource offers guidance on how to decide whether or not a particular question is appropriate to ask a transgender person. It also has answers to specific questions that many people have, as well as reasons why transgender people may be uncomfortable being asked these questions directly. 

Equal Access for Transgender People: Supporting Inclusive Housing and Shelters

Transgender individuals in particular are impacted by violence and discrimination in ways that both contribute to high rates of homelessness and keep them from accessing necessary shelter and services. These training materials provide CoCs and projects with the framework to create welcoming and inclusive projects for transgender and gender non-conforming people.

To help make sense of the policy landscape in the states for LGBT people, and transgender people specifically, "Mapping Transgender Equality in the United States" looks at legal equality for transgender people across the country.
