Author Visit: Ben Greene

Join us for an afternoon with transgender advocate and educator Ben Greene as he discusses his latest book My Child is Trans, Now What? A Joy-Centered Approach to Support. In his book, Greene breaks the mold by offering a judgement-free guide to people across generations, from millennial parents to members of older generations who may not have had previous positive exposure to the trans community. Greene focuses on providing two key resources in this book: information and emotional support. He explains what to expect, what systems exist to support trans youth, and what loved ones can do to help.
