Bathrooms, Bullies, and Bystanders: Supporting Transgender Survivors

Restrictive legislation is limiting the basic right of trans/non-binary individuals to use public bathrooms. Youth, adults, politicians, parents, teachers, people of faith, (even some victim service providers) are too often engaging in anti-trans bullying and assault.  What can agencies do to both support trans communities and counter myths about sexual assault linkages to basic human rights.

Objectives

1. List three statistics about transgender or non-binary people and restrooms you didn’t know before the workshop.
2. Identify at least one health risk to transgender individuals who are living in a culture where the basic right to bathroom access is being restricted or denied.
3. Name two bystander intervention strategies you can share with colleagues.
