UW-Whitewater Community Engagement Center Presents Gender Inclusive Language and Pronouns Digital Workshop on 8/28

WEBEX EVENT: Introduction to Gender Inclusive Language and Pronouns
(with emphasis for healthcare professionals)

Friday, August 28th from 12-1 p.m.
The landscape for creating a gender-inclusive environment is quickly changing as the words that young people specifically use to name and communicate their genders expands. In a 2017 poll conducted by GLAAD, for instance, 12% of millennials named their gender beyond the cisgender male-female binary. This 45-60 minute workshop will introduce participants to LGBTQ vocabulary and provide background information and platforms to practice using gender-inclusive pronouns.

Stephanie Selvick, PhD, works as the LGBT* Coordinator at UW-Whitewater where she also teaches “Introduction
to LGBTQ Students” and “Queer Popular Culture.”
