During March and April, SIG/Club/Networking meetings are open to ALL - you do not have to be a member of LACPA to attend.    

Topic: A Place for Us: Best Practices for Trans Clients

This 90-minute workshop will help clinicians grasp terms, ideas, and situations that trans & gender expansive people are experiencing today. Participants will be able to assess their own practices as it relates to the transgender community and be able to take with them an overarching understanding of the coming out process. Discussions will include policy & paperwork, talking to families, creating a brave space within the therapeutic relationship, and how to effectively be an ally to trans and gender expansive people.
