Community Book Reading in Support of Transgender Youth on Dec. 7th

I am Jazz – Community Book Reading in Support of Transgender Youth
December 7, 7pm, in the Sanctuary

The Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation’s Welcoming Schools program and the National Education Association (NEA) are teaming to sponsor national I Am Jazz school and community readings to show support for transgender youth.  As the HRC states, “Trans youth who go without affirmation face increased risks of depression, substance abuse & suicide attempts…a reading is an incredibly powerful way to show your support.”

Please join us as we support transgender youth in our community. We will read the book, have a short discussion, and work on a simple poetry activity aimed at helping us all explore our identity through poetry.

Youth and adults are welcome. There is no fee to participate.
