Describe the challenge you want to address:
Transgender parents of transgender students face a unique set of challenges. They may face discrimination around the idea that they pushed their children to be trans, or fear that their children will face the same anti-trans vnetoric that they received. Most local support groups for parents if trans kids (e.g. PFLAG, Acueman institute) are centered around cisgender parents, need their own support systems.
What is the solution to the challenge?
Creating support groups for transgender parents of transgender children that are facilitated by trained, paid transgender adults.
