This workshop will build upon the education provided by the previous 2 workshops and focus on the practical application of concepts into daily practice as a peer support provider. This will include modeling an “ideal” version of interacting with a TGNCNB client, sharing things that could go right and things that could go wrong, and ways to make spaces more inclusive and accessible for TGNCNB individuals. This workshop will also provide an overview of how to gracefully navigate mistakes and misunderstandings when working with TGNCNB individuals and provide space for participants to practice these conversations and skills in a supportive environment. The goal of this workshop is for participants to leave feeling more comfortable and confident in working with TGNCNB individuals, and for them to have tangible skill sets in terms of navigating mistakes, asking respectful questions, and clarifying misunderstandings.
