Transgender Student Rights group joins GLSEN
We were contacted by the Executive Director of GLSEN, Eliza Byard, PhD with the following news:
I am proud to announce that GLSEN is strengthening our longstanding support for transgender and gender nonconforming students with the addition of the student-created grassroots organization Transgender Student Rights (TSR) to our family of programs.
Founded in 2009, TSR is an online community that provides support and resources to transgender and gender nonconforming students. The TSR student leaders have produced resources and grown a large community of transgender and gender nonconforming youth, and those seeking to support them.
As a part of GLSEN, TSR will become a vehicle for resources, actions, events and support at GLSEN.org while continuing to provide a community of engagement on Facebook and Twitter, supported by transgender and gender nonconforming youth.
Visit GLSEN’s Transgender Student Rights page to learn more about TSR and download GLSEN resources designed to support and empower transgender and gender nonconforming students, such as Know Your Rights: A Guide for Trans and Gender Nonconforming Students, Where is the “T” in GSA: Making Your School Trans-Inclusive and our Model District Policy on Transgender and Gender Nonconforming Students.
You can also sign up for news and updates about TSR and our work related to transgender and gender nonconforming youth.
