diversity, equity, and inclusion offerings

 

I offer consulting and educational services in the areas of LGBTQ+ human rights and health, trans issues, gender/queer theory, intersectionality, and more.

 

Within my area of expertise, I can cater to your unique needs as a company or organization to provide the most contextually-relevant content for your members. All of my workshops combine the foundation of research and knowledge with interpersonal connection, engagement, and conversations. 

All of my workshops, regardless of their topic, strive to take a decolonial and anti-racist approach and address intersectionalities including of gender, race, sexuality, class, ability, and more. I do not, however, teach workshops mainly focused on race, anti-racism, indigeneity, or other themes about BIPOC identity and inclusion; I will not center myself (a white person) nor position myself as an expert in those conversations. 

I offer DEI services in a number of forms, including online course consulting, company policy audits or creation, marketing assessment, in person or online workshops, and educational documents.

 

Some workshop themes that you may consider include:

  • Wtf are gender and sexuality? And wtf are mine? Gender and Sexuality for youth

  • So you want to be an ally

  • Pride month: a history of Stonewall

  • LGBTQ+ human rights: past, present, and future

  • Intersectionality and LGBTQ+ identity

  • Butler’s Basics: Accessible queer theory

  • Providing pre- and post-op support for gender affirming surgery

  • Gender 101, Trans 101

  • Pronouns 101

  • LGBTQIA+: Breaking down the acronym

  • Trans and nonbinary menstruation: Not all people menstruate and not all menstruators are women

  • Inclusive Language in the Office: not just “hey guys!”

  • What does LGBTQ+-inclusive healthcare look like?

  • Creating an LGBTQ+-friendly workplace: From space to speech

  • LGBTQ+ in the classroom: inclusion, teaching, supporting
