Cambridge Transgender Awareness Month Panel: Speak Up, Speak Out (Hybrid)

November 16, 2022 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

This Transgender Awareness Month, the Cambridge Healthy Children’s Task Force, with co-sponsors the Cambridge LGBTQ+ Commission, Cambridge Public Library, and Project 10 East (P10), are proud to present a panel discussion on the lived experience of transgender and non-binary youth featuring members of SpeakOUT Boston and local community members. Join us to connect with other transgender, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming youth; their caregivers and allies; and those who want to be better allies to the LGBTQIA+ community!

This event is hybrid. You can register to come in person or attend the webinar session. Zoom links will be sent to registrants one hour before the event starts.
