How to Make Your Organization Meaningfully Inclusive of Two-Spirit, Non-Binary, Trans, and Other Gender Diverse People.

This free education session open to anyone in the Valley Community who wants to understand the needs and experiences of gender diverse populations, what the law says about gender identity and expression, and the importance and value of fostering meaningful and authentic inclusion of two-spirit, trans, non-binary, and gender diverse people across our province.

Our communities, our institutions, and our lives are all made better when everyone can feel safe, respected, and included in the spaces we share. This includes spaces such as our workplaces, schools, businesses, coffee shops, restaurants, shopping centres, government agencies, and many other organizations that are essential parts of life in Nova Scotia.

The aim of this talk, and the accompanying free guide, is to equip you with concrete tools to make your organizations safer spaces for gender diverse people. We’ll cover important topics such as pronouns and names, gender inclusive washrooms, ways to think outside the gender binary, and inclusive language tips.
