Trans Law Institute: Resilient
Description: The Trans Law Institute is a participatory space where lawyers, law students, and activists invested in or interested in learning more about the issues facing the trans community can build community and make commitments for collective action. We have chosen “Resilient” as this year’s theme given the immense backlash the trans community is experiencing in response to recent progress. The Institute will be a space for everyone affected to discuss the state of affairs, ideate best next steps as a movement, and cultivate trans resiliency. In seeking to create inclusive, accessible, and mindful opportunities for connection, the Institute will be a hybrid event with a virtual attendance option.
The Institute will take an equitable approach to centering trans lived experiences. With that in mind, we welcome everyone to join for any part of the Institute or for the entire day.
