Breaking Barriers: Accredited Trans Misogynoir Training for Legal Professionals
In an increasingly diverse and inclusive world, legal professionals are called upon to understand and address the nuanced challenges faced by underrepresented communities. The Trans Misogynoir training, accredited by the Law Society of Ontario for two (2) EDI Professionalism hours, offers legal practitioners an opportunity to deepen their commitment to advancing equity, diversity, and inclusion in the legal system.
This training is uniquely designed to promote a deeper understanding of misogyny, transphobia, and anti-Black racism, which often intersect to create compounded barriers for Black trans and non-binary individuals navigating the legal system. By participating in this program, legal professionals will gain the tools needed to foster inclusive environments and practices that actively combat discrimination and empower marginalized clients.
