Advancing QTBIPOC/LGBTQI Survivor Support in our Movements

This workshop will address best practices in supporting Queer/Trans survivors of violence. Specific focus will be given to the experiences of QTBIPOC (Queer Trans Black Indigenous People of Color) individuals who have often been poorly served by mainstream DV/SA and LGBTQI organizations. The workshop includes interactive discussion about the state of current resources available for QTBIPOC/LGBTQI survivors of violence, strategies toward Queer/Trans inclusive services, and support for the development of grassroots QTBIPOC-led survivor initiatives.
