Jennifer Benner

Transgender people experience sexual violence at a higher rate and often face barriers in accessing rape crisis services because of organizational practices and policies that make it difficult for trans, transgender, gender non-conforming, and gender non-binary survivors of sexual assault to access services or receive equal treatment. In NRCDV's June 2016 TA Question of the month, Jennifer Benner provides guidance for supporting trans survivors of sexual assault, as well as links to additional resources for service providers.
