For many transgender, nonbinary, and gender-diverse people, pronouns are not simply words, they are an affirmation that people see them exactly as they are. To coincide with Pride month at Sheridan, we invite you to join us for this Inclusive Communities session delivered by Sheridan Social Service Worker graduate Corrin Marier, in discussion with students and employee members of the Sheridan Building Positive Space Committee and facilitated by Dr. Cherie Werhun.
From this webinar you will take away:
An understanding of the terms “gender identity”, “gender expression”, “cisgender”, “transgender” and “non-binary”
How to use pronouns and neopronouns in conversation
Knowledge about the impact of “misgendering”
The connection between the use of pronouns and mental health
Steps you can take to become an ally for trans people
