Parents, family, friends, and members within the LGBTQ+ community are invited to attend this PFLAG chapter event. “Getting Through the Holidays” focuses on showing up for transgender and LGBTQ+ family members at family holiday gatherings. Whether it's helping grandma remember the right pronouns, figuring out what to say about Uncle Joe's openly transphobic comments, or finding a way to make the gathering bearable for a closeted youth. Ben Greene will share a variety of helpful tools and hopeful anecdotes about his own story coming out as a teenager in a small town.
Ben is a transgender advocate and educator who has spoken internationally on topics surrounding transgender inclusion. Ben has devoted his career to spreading empathy, education, and storytelling around the trans experience, and has spoken for companies, hospitals, government groups, and over 100 PFLAG chapters sharing what it means to be transgender and how to show up as an ally.
