Strategies to Improve Mental Health Care for Autistic Youth
July 27, 2022
DESCRIPTION
Family acceptance is life-saving for transgender and gender expansive youth (TGEY) and is predictive of TGEY mental health (Olson, Durwood, DeMeules, & McLaughlin, 2016; Olson-Kennedy et al., 2016; Pariseau et al., 2019; Ryan, Huebner, Diaz, & Sanchez, 2009). This training will address the importance of family support as a protective factor against depression, anxiety, and suicidality for transgender youth. Family support may serve as a buffer from mental health challenges so frequently associated with the challenges of growing up in a cis-normative and transphobic world (Malpas & Glaeser, 2017; Simons et al., 2013).  This training will cover the importance of intervening on a family level for youth and the unique benefit of targeting parental behavior and attitudes, while also supporting young people from an intersectional, contextual perspective. Best practices for working with families with TGEY will be explored (Pellicane, Malpas, & Glaeser, 2021).
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
This training will help participants:
  1. Identify three reasons that family acceptance is important for transgender and gender expansive youth
  2. Understand at least two ways in which intersectional and sociopolitical stressors impact families with TGEY
  3. Learn at least three best practices for working with families with TGEY
