Social Services and GenderCassie
“We don’t tell kids when they’re little that there are a million options. We tell them that there are two...(but) there’s more to it, there’s an infinity.”
Supporting youth in their gender journeys is a big part of Cassie’s role as Director of an LGBT youth center. Hear Cassie describe working with young people, helping to create a safe space for them, affirming their race, ethnic, cultural and other intersectional identities, and more.
“Every piece of you is part of your experience with gender and we can talk about all of those things.”
Social workers, advocates and other professionals who work with youth and families can connect and share your strategies for success in the Gender Spectrum Lounge and build their skills through our professional development services.
