Competent Social Work Practice in the Context of Anti-Trans Policy, Legislation, and Rhetoric

Summary

Recent years have witnessed a drastic increase in anti-trans policies and legislation proposed and pass across the U.S. Given the ethical mandates of the profession and the values rooted in social justice, social workers must be at the forefront of addressing these harmful policies and the rhetoric surrounding them. Clinical and macro practitioners alike have a critical role to play in supporting transgender and gender expansive children and adults, as well as their families, and advocating against policies that seek to do harm to transgender people. This workshop will first provide social work practitioners with a background on the current U.S. context as it relates to anti-trans policies, legislation, and rhetoric. Next, practitioners will develop clinical, macro, and multisystem skills for supporting transgender individuals and advocating at the community or state levels.
