The UCSF Child and Adolescent Gender Center BROWN BAG BOOK CLUB
In 2019 Finn Gratton, LMFT authored a pioneering book, Supporting Transgender Autistic Youth and Adults: A Guide for Professionals and Families.
The Child and Adolescent Gender Center is hosting a two-part free book discussion group via Zoom facilitated by Gender Therapist and WPATH Mentor Lisette Lahana, LCSW. Now is your chance to connect with gender therapists doing the same reading and thinking about our trans and non-binary autistic (neurodivergent/neuroqueer) clients. You can attend either all or part of the series. It is recommended that you purchase and read the entire book, not only the selected chapters. If purchasing the book is a hardship please include this in the RSVP and the chapters will be made available to you in pdf format.
Feel free to enjoy lunch while we discuss.
