  • A Trans Ally Toolkit Raise Your Voice NEVER UNDERESTIMATE the POWER of a COMMUNITY WORKING TOGETHER
    A Trans Ally Toolkit Raise Your Voice NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF A COMMUNITY WORKING TOGETHER. 2 Welcome In our work defending civil liberties across Missouri, it has become clear that many people think we don’t have any transgender or gender non-conforming (TGNC) people living here. In reality, this couldn’t be further from the truth! There are an estimated 25,000 trans and GNC folks living in Missouri1. Some TGNC Missourians are proud of where they’re from and can’t imagine living in any other state. Others – unfortunately – can’t wait to leave because of the pervasive harassment and discrimination that make it a battle to survive in Missouri as one’s true self. To shift this difficult climate and fight back against the anti-LGBTQ+ bills that fuel it, many organizations are working to pass nondiscrimination protections and educate Missourians on these issues. In our work on this, we wanted to make sure we empowered the TGNC community. Through our new statewide initiative – the Transgender Education and Advocacy Program – we are taking the lead from TGNC community members all over the state. But advocating for oneself in a dangerous climate is not always sustainable. We know allies are needed to help further the efforts of transgender people already fighting for their lives. We have found that many Missourians want to be allies to marginalized communities but don’t know where to start. That’s why we created this Trans Ally Toolkit – it is a community-backed action guide for cultivating a Missouri that is safe and welcoming for all genders.

  • DC Child and Family Services Agency (CFSA) in 2006 in Response to Employee Requests for Additional Support As It Relates to the LGBTQ Community
    Inclusion Sensitivity Resources What is the LGBTQ Taskforce? The Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual/Transgender/Questioning (LGBTQ) Taskforce came together at the DC Child and Family Services Agency (CFSA) in 2006 in response to employee requests for additional support as it relates to the LGBTQ community. The Taskforce is composed of social workers from every CFSA administration as well as varied community partners including Adoptions Together, the American Bar Association, Children’s Law Center, DC Center, DC Department of Mental Health, foster parents, Human Rights Campaign, Iona Whipper Home for Children, Mayor’s Office of LGBT Affairs, and the Sexual Minority Youth Assistance League (SMYAL). What does the LGBTQ Taskforce do? The Taskforce actively supports non-discrimination and full inclusion of children, youth, families, and employees in the District’s child welfare system regardless of lifestyle. People who are—or are perceived to be—lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or questioning (LGBTQ) and who are involved in the child welfare system deserve to be treated with respect and dignity and must be afforded all the rights, privileges, services, and protections for which they are eligible. The Taskforce offers information and sponsors training and other supports for this mission. What resources does the LGBTQ Taskforce offer? To help social workers meet the unique needs of LGBTQ youth on their caseloads, Taskforce members provide case consultation and connection to community resources. The Taskforce aids in recruiting LGBTQ foster and adoptive families and collaborates with the CFSA Training Academy to provide training in working effectively with LGBTQ youth and families. The Taskforce is a one-stop resource regarding local services that support the LGBTQ community and has established partnerships with numerous community agencies and organizations.
