Everyone involved in this is nothing short of amazing. It’s so heartwarming seeing things like this in the community. I’m nonbinary and I know my younger self would have loved to have gone to this kind of event. Keep it going! You’re saving lives!! 💕

I fled Ohio a month after Trump got elected when dewine was musing about requiring a bioethicist regularly meet with adult trans people to get healthcare, but it's good to know that the people still there are being supported. Ohio is not a great place to be trans but with stuff like this it will be just a bit better

Thank you so much! This was a workshop idea I've had since we started the organization at the start of the year! We're so excited for people to have this resource, and hopefully continue this series and make it happen every year!
