Families in Transition: Development of a Therapeutic Group for Gender-Diverse Youth and Their Caregivers
In collaboration with GenderNexus, Gender Expansive Kids & Co. (GEKCO), and PFLAG-Fishers this research project will evaluate a therapeutic support group designed to meet the needs of gender-diverse youth and their caregivers. The group will enhance the social and emotional well-being of participants through psychoeducation, skill development, familial relationship and communication building, and community connectedness. Dr. Brandon-Friedman is the 2022 Bantz Community Fellow. Read more about his project at https://trip.iupui.edu/Awards/Community-Fellowships.html.
