More transgender people are coming out than ever before. This progression in visibility means that families, peers, community organizations, and businesses are quickly needing guidance on how to best support trans people in a system not built for their needs. Jess Clark, the Director of Sexual Violence Prevention for the New Mexico Coalition of Sexual Assault Programs, will lead an interactive discussion on basic terminology while reframing common myths and exploring ways to move in solidarity with transgender and non-binary communities. About Jess Jess Clark is the Director of Sexual Violence Prevention for the New Mexico Coalition of Sexual Assault Programs, a consultant for Catharsis Productions in Chicago, IL, a transgender education consultant, and the host of Both/And: A Sexual Violence Prevention Podcast. His work over the last decade has focused on increasing youth capacity to interrogate systems of oppression, exploring queer and trans masculinities as a site of violence prevention, and supporting organizations in better serving transgender communities through policies, best practices, and learning to be like his grandma. Jess is a member of the Santa Fe Public Schools Equity and Diversity Council and has served on the Board of Directors for Girls Inc. of Santa Fe and Transgender Resource Center of NM. |
