This program is designed to help Meeting and Event Professionals provide a safe and supportive climate for all and become better advocates for the trans community. By understanding the needs of this community and being able to advocate and educate others, employees, volunteers, members, and participants can feel safe and welcomed with zero additional costs. Venues, cities, and states are evolving and passing legislation to provide the public with accommodations, and organizations are updating non-discrimination polices to understand gender identity and expression. Now it is your turn.
Learner Outcomes:
- Increase awareness of the existence of the trans/gender-variant populations.
- Create more association and venue advocates for trans needs.
- Elevate your meetings and events as a leader in serving trans populations.
