Susan Radzilowski Talks with WDET About Support for Transgender Youth

Lecturer Susan Radzilowski spoke with WDET’s The Metro about the challenges as well as the services and supports available for transgender youth in Metro Detroit.

“The availability of school support is extremely important in my opinion. The most important supports here for young people are family, which of course is your home, and school and community,” Radzilowski said. “Oftentimes working with and identifying just one teacher or counselor or adult ally at school can go a really long way to making a transgender child feel safe at school. And so education, training — these are really important ways to impact and improve those environments for transgender students.”
