June 7, 2021 2:00PM-3:00PM EST
In 2020 and 2021 trending state legislation regarding transgender and gender non-binary individuals has centered around restricting participation in school sports teams based on assigned sex at birth. Over the last several months in particular, a growing number of states have enacted restrictive policies, creating concerns regarding transgender and gender non-binary individuals’ rights in education. This session, co-sponsored by the Gender and Sexuality Knowledge Community (GSKC) will bring NASPA membership up to speed with the landscape of state policies concerning transgender and gender non-binary students and what student affairs professionals can do to support an inclusive campus for all.

- Vivian Topping, Director of Advocacy and Civic Engagement, Equality Federation
- Kyle Velte J.D., Associate Professor, University of Kansas School of Law
- Luca Maurer, Director, The Center for LGBT Education, Outreach & Services and co-author of The Teaching Transgender Toolkit, Ithaca College
- Emet Marwell, Policy & Programs Manager, Athlete Ally
Facilitated By:
