Skrmetti info session today - still time to register!


There's still time to join us at noon CDT today (July 8) for a review of the US v. Skrmetti ruling.

We'll be talking about its immediate impact on parents and mental health providers as well as considerations for the future.

Tickets are free but donations are appreciated. All proceeds will go to Lambda Legal, the Godfrey-Smith Counseling Trans Refugee Fund, and the scholarship fund for the Parents of Trans Youth online community.

This event will not be recorded. Hope to see you soon!
