We will be discussing Misgendering: What is it and why it matters.
Featured Speaker:
Catherine Hyde
Catherine has worked in social justice for 25 years. She is founder of Navigating What’s Next, a practice specializing in coaching and consulting for the nonprofit and LGBTQ+ communities. She is a graduate of Georgetown’s Executive Certificate program in Leadership Coaching and is PCC certified by the International Coaching Foundation. Catherine did not listen to her child who, at the age of 4, told her that something had gone wrong in her belly and that he was supposed to be a she. Her child’s journey, as the first youth to transition in the Howard County school system, inspired Catherine’s advocacy. She volunteers with PFLAG (the oldest and largest organization supporting LGBTQ+ people and their loved ones) and speaks and trains on transgender understanding and sensitivity. She has worked with the Department of Justice, helping train law enforcement, and was asked to testify before the LGBTQ congressional caucus.
