A Kingdom of Care: Regenics Wellness Center and Its Groundbreaking Services - PRNewswire

Overcrowded, confined spaces are a nightmare for the spread of coronavirus. This makes prisons a potential hotspot for the disease.

Despite this, most researchers who study prisons have been locked out of them at this crucial time. In the UK, the prison and probation service has halted primary research in prisons, giving us scant information about how prisoners have been affected by the pandemic.

But our team obtained permission to continue existing research exploring the experiences of England and Wales transgender and non-binary prisoners some of the most vulnerable people in any prison. This was on the basis that the methodology placed minimal burden on staff, and the continuation of correspondence was within Her Majestys Prison and Probation Service policy of encouraging letter-writing during lockdown.

When the pandemic struck, we wrote two letters to our participants: one to reassure them that the project will continue, and another with a series of questions regarding their experience of the lockdown. To date, we have received 12 letters, excerpts from which are included below. Through them, we can provide a rare glimpse into the lives of trans and non-binary prisoners in the shadow of COVID-19, in their own words.

Transgender and non-conforming gender people are a vulnerable minority that suffer widespread discrimination in society. However there is little academic research that has focused on transgender and non-conforming gender prisoners and their experiences of prison life. This article reports preliminary findings from what we believe is the first national academic study of this prison population in England and Wales.

The UKs lockdown policies apply to prisons as well as the general community. This means prisoners are currently locked in their cells for 23 to 23.5-hours per day and only allowed out for exercise in the yard, to collect their food and take it back to their cells, and to take a shower (in those prisons that do not have showers in the cells).

One study participant wrote:

I still get up around 7am, but instead of getting unlocked at 8am to go work, gym, etc we are only let out to pick up our food, twice a day, and have 30 minutes exercise outside. We are normally out of our cells from 8am to 8.15pm week days and 8.45am to 5.15pm on weekends. Now we get 30 minutes outside in the yard. The other 23 hours are behind our doors.

Just as essential workers need to keep going to work in the outside world, so do their prison equivalents.

Many of our correspondents continue with jobs that are essential for prison maintenance and to stop COVID. One wrote:

Our first job was putting up perspex screens at the meds hatches to help protect everyone. Ive also emptied the COVID PPE [personal protective equipment] store after bio bags were isolated for 72 hours. A bonus of being an essential worker is daily showers and a 10 a week bonus. The other essential workers are laundry workers, canteen pickers and tea packers (these make our tea bag, milk, sugar, packs that we get daily).

Prisons run a complex roster to manage the 30-60 minute window of out-of-cell time, letting prisoners out in small groups in order to maintain social distancing. However, many of our respondents are sceptical about the feasibility of keeping prisoners and prison staff two metres apart:

Social distancing in prison is just a joke. I wonder how inmates in shared cells can keep 2m distance from each other? Most of the corridors and none of the stairs in this prison are even 2m wide. This is simply ridiculous and officers agree with me.

Work, education, chapel and the gym have been cancelled, and libraries are closed. Yet, some prisons have managed to move the services closer to the prisoners. In one prison, the chaplaincy have started individual visits to the wings; in another, the library has sent a box of books and DVDs to each wing that gets updated every couple of weeks, a prisoner writes. Instead of going to the gym, prisoners are developing their own in-cell exercise routines.

To alleviate boredom, some prisons have started providing distraction packs including drawing, colouring, origami and crossword puzzles. Some are even running weekly quizzes and sudoku, poems or jokes competitions, for prizes of phone and canteen credits.

Access to the usual in-cell distraction, TV, has also improved: some prisons no longer charge the weekly TV fee; some have introduced more channels, including a new TV channel prisoners can watch to receive information.

Prisoners are also doing what they can in the fight against COVID-19 beyond the prison walls. Some prisons have provided an opportunity to donate to the NHS; some have started to use their workshops to produce PPE:

I told wing officer that I can set up a production of face masks in textiles workshop a month later together with one more prisoner we designed and made few different styles of face masks, basic protective clothes and uniform bags.

Despite being in a high-risk environment, most of our correspondents are not particularly worried about COVID-19. Since they have little control over their environment, they have adopted a rather fatalistic attitude. Im not concerned about my health, no point worrying until I have it, one writes.

Others prefer life under lockdown. I love this lockdown, no one upsets me as dont see many people at all, says another.

The main issue for our correspondents is that the lockdown has reduced access to medical services, including mental health care and support for their transition. Those who have already been prescribed hormone-replacement therapy are receiving their medication in prison. Yet, continuing prescription requires blood tests that have been on hold, and so medication such as testosterone blockers have been administered by injection. Appointments at gender identity clinics are also on hold.

I was meant to start on T-blockers, but that hasnt happened yet, a participant writes. I guess as its not critical it goes on the back burner. Its not good for my mental state, but Ive waited eight years so a little longer wont hurt

Generally, the people who are part of this research believe that their prisons are managing well, all things considered. Some prisoners mentioned how prison staff and governors had been going above and beyond to support prisoners and alleviate their hardships.

Despite COVID-19 changes leading to long periods locked up in their cells, our participants thus far have not experienced this in a negative way, and many have positive experiences of lockdown.

This shows two things: first, it says that our participants are resilient to testing circumstances; second, it hints at the social isolation that some of our participants already experience in prison.

This is clear in one particular account of life during COVID-19 compared to life before it:

Im used to being isolated so this lockdown doesnt bother me I normally retreat and isolate myself in my cell to manage stress and anxiety so being locked up 23 hours a day is fine for me. My cell is my only safe space.

This is important to understand because while the restrictions and social isolation for most prisoners will ease as the pandemic progresses, the isolation that our participants experience will not disappear unless wider structural changes are made to ensure that prisons become a more inclusive environment for transgender and non-binary people.

The research team would like to acknowledge and thank the participants, whose letters were used to prepare this article: Jerika Ramone, Hotaru, Rachel, Winter Rose, Wildgoose, Sharron, Brittany, Jess Kelly, and Amelia (all pseudonyms).

Trans and in prison during a pandemic: a rare glimpse behind bars - The Conversation UK

J.K. Rowling, author of the beloved "Harry Potter" series, published a lengthy blog post on her website this week, attempting to explain her controversial tweets about transgender women.

The author has been widely criticized for a history of making transphobic comments, including most recently writing on Twitter that trans activism was harming women, and reiterating her rejection of the existence of non-binary and intersex people.

Rowling said in her post that one of the reasons she's taken such positions is that she's "concerned about the huge explosion in young women wishing to transition," as well as the growing number who she says seem to be detransitioning, or returning to the sex they were assigned at birth.

They do so, Rowling wrote, "because they regret taking steps that have, in some cases, altered their bodies irrevocably, and taken away their fertility."

She added: "Some say they decided to transition after realizing they were same-sex attracted, and that transitioning was partly driven by homophobia, either in society or in their families."

Rowling also said that 10 years ago most people who wanted to transition were assigned male at birth, but now the UK "has experienced a 4,400% increase in girls being referred for transitioning treatment," adding that autistic girls are "hugely overrepresented."

Rowling's claims are not only unsupported by data, but perpetuate dangerous myths about trans people that can inhibit their access to life-saving care.

Demographers don't know exactly how many transgender people there are or how that number has changed, since there are a range of terms to describe transgender identities and population-based surveys have historically not asked about trans identities.

Rowling's 4,400% increase reference seems to come from a report finding that 40 people assigned female at birth in the UK sought gender treatment between 2009 and 2010, while 1,806 did between 2017 and 2018.

Polly Carmichael, a psychologist who heads The Tavistock and Portman mental health clinic's gender identity service (which was the only trans affirming service in the UK in 2016), told NBC that while she is seeing large increase in the number of patients in need of gender-affirming care, this is likely due to an increase in visibility for trans services and gender varience rather than a "trend."

"Young people experiencing gender dysphoria is a real phenomenon," Carmichael said. "It can be incredibly isolating. If you don't feel you belong in a particular category that you've been assigned to. Many adolescents do become very distressed and self-harm."

Rowling's assertion that being a trans boy or man is suddenly more common than being a trans girl or woman is also questionable. In fact, one 2019 survey from the UK government found 3.5% of the population were trans women (women who were assigned male at birth) while 2.9% were trans men (men who'd been assigned female at birth).

In this Aug. 23, 2007 file photo, a sign marks the entrance to a gender neutral restroom at the University of Vermont in Burlington, Vt. AP Photo/Toby Talbot, File

While more people who were assigned female at birth have transitioned in recent years, that's likely because gender-affirming treatments such as hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and surgeries weren't that accessible to transgender people until recently.

Insurance companies refused to cover gender-affirming care for decades and many primary-care physicians were unwilling to provide HRT, a medication also prescribed for menopause, to transgender and nonbinary patients because medical guidelines had not changed to include them.

It wasn't until 2017 that "gender identity disorder" was decategorized as a mental disorder in the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. In fact the World Health Organization removed "transsexualism" from the International Classification of Diseases only in 2018 a move that, the WHO said, would allow for better "access to necessary health interventions."

Many trans people simply have more access.

While detransitioning does happen, it's very rare, with one analysis showing that less than a percent of 3,398 trans people said they'd experienced transitioned-related regret, or had detransitioned.

And contrary to Rowling's assertion that detransitioning means the person regretted transitioning, "the most common reason for detransition is the person couldn't cope with the family and community support they lost and the experiences of transphobia," according to the UK organization Stonewall.

Others may be unable to find a job or housing, or no longer identify the gender they transitioned to feel more valid in.

Research actually shows any feelings of regret are typically related to unsatisfactory surgical results.

Getty/Angela Weiss

These fears about detransitioning can be dangerous because they invalidate the gender identities of young trans people and make it more difficult to obtain access to care.

Across the United States, state representatives are attempting to pass legislation that would go against medical guidelines and ban doctors from providing gender-affirming treatments to transgender youth. Their arguments are based on the same logic of Rowling's assertion that transgender youth are simply going through a phase they will grow out of.

Studies have debunked this idea and shown children as young as four develop their gender in the same ways as their cisgender peers.

In a study released in 2019, researchers found no significant differences between the trans and cis kids' gender development, or how they grew to understand and formulate their gender.The findings also revealed that transgender children gravitate toward the same gendered toys, clothing items, and friends as cisgender participants, regardless of how long they had been socially transitioned.

"Gender-affirming health care saves lives," Shawn Meerkamper and Dale Melchert, senior staff attorney and staff attorney for the Transgender Law Center, told Insider for a previous story.

Frank Franklin II/Associated Press

In her essay, Rowling made the point that the gender dysphoria when a person feels as if their body doesn't match their gender identity that many young trans people are feeling is a "social contagion."

She cited a 2018 study from Brown University that argued the "rapid-onset gender dysphoria" (ROGD), typically for those assigned female at birth, came out of social pressures from peers rather than genuine feelings of being transgender.

This study has since been cited by media outlets and gender-critical feminists as an argument against transgender youth receiving gender-affirming care. Like Rowling, people have used this research to make the argument that being trans is a trend.

However, another recent study from Brown University debunked the claim that ROGD exists.

Arjee Restar, a transgender researcher at Brown, wrote a critique of the study that found themethodology including surveying parents of trans teens who had read anti-trans websites is flawed and pathologizes trans people.

PLOS One, the journal the 2018 study appeared in, published a revised version that said the data was based on observations of parents rather than data from the trans teens themselves. If a parent does not see their child's gender identity as valid, they are likely more susceptible to cite ROGD as the reason their child has started to openly identify as trans.

Restar told BuzzFeed News that the corrected version of the study was still flawed and "below scientific standards."

"It's important to use methods and terminologies that don't further stigmatize an already disenfranchised community," Restar said.

But I wasnt just snappy or bursting into tears at silly things, as so many of us do when our period is about to arrive. Instead, for over a decade, I was completely out of control of my own life and no one knew why. How could they when I didnt even know myself?

I had a loving family, good friends, a fulfilling career. I should have been happy. But I wasnt. The answer, it turns out, lay in Mums joke. My depression, anxiety, anorexia they were all down to one thing: my menstrual cycle. So why did it take 14 years and countless overdoses for that to be diagnosed?

It all started when I was 12. Up until that year, Id been a happy child, growing up in Derbyshire with my mum, dad and younger brother. But I started waking up with a dark cloud over my head. Intrusive thoughts would flood my brain, hardening into an ongoing sense of panic and foreboding. Then there were the physical symptoms: headaches, insomnia and a lethargy that made my bones feel like they were made of concrete. There was just one respite: for five days of the month, I felt fine, like my old self again. Laughing with my friends and family, Id think, Im back. But that didnt last for long.

My teenage years passed in a blur. I was a voyeur, looking into the fishbowl of my life and watching from the outside as everyone had fun without me. I felt cocooned by a feeling of worthlessness. Failure terrified me my A-levels filled me with such extreme anxiety I would have panic attacks just thinking about them. Sitting in lessons, the words I cant do this swirled in front of me until I had to run out of class, hyperventilating. Id spend all my free time studying, to catch up on what Id missed, instead of hanging out with friends or dating. I was lonely. Anxious. I hated my life.

"It was like Id lost every ounce of control. I didnt want to die I just wanted a break from the anxiety and worthlessness that plagued me."

I visited doctor after doctor and was diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome, then anxiety, then depression, then anorexia. I was anorexic. I would exercise like crazy every lunchtime and after school, running until I burned myself out. But, looking back, it was clear I was searching for control anywhere I could get it.

When I got a place at the University of Southampton to study physiotherapy, I saw it as a way to escape. I thought perhaps if I moved away from home, my problems would go away too. But despite making friends and forcing myself to go along to parties, I sank even deeper into the darkness. One day I found myself sitting on a park bench, taking an overdose. It was like Id lost every ounce of control. I didnt want to die I just wanted a break from the anxiety and worthlessness that plagued me. When I woke up, I was in hospital. I had no idea how I got there. My thoughts went straight to my family. How could I do that to them?

But my remorse didnt last for long. Soon overdosing became a regular part of my life never to end it, but because I needed the unexplained chaos within my mind and body to stop. There were even times I wished someone would put me into a coma, so that I was still alive but didnt have to think or feel. I craved numbness.

Eventually I was allocated a crisis team and put under observation. This heightened awareness around me only made me even more secretive about what I was doing. My friends became used to watching my decline, but I hid the worst from them, overdosing in private. There were times Id wake up alone in a panic and call the crisis team whod sometimes send an ambulance to bring me in for treatment. My friends begged me to stop. I wouldnt listen. I was convinced I wasnt worth their worry.

One day my mum came to surprise me at my flat. She found me mid-overdose, curled up like a little mouse in the corner of my room. I dont remember much about that day only that my mum was absolutely heartbroken. But the guilt I felt didnt stop me. Throughout my final year, I was admitted to hospital for overdosing a further three times, all without my parents knowledge.

Despite all of this, I was determined to pass my university course. Driven by a fear of failure, I rewrote my final essay five times, staying up for nights on end without sleeping. I graduated in 2012, landing a full-time job that was a 30-minute drive away from my family, and moving into a house-share with a stranger. I loved my work so much that I refused to miss even one day of it but outside of that, I was crumbling. Three years into the role, my anorexia was so bad that I was malnourished and I couldnt do my job properly, so my managers and I agreed I would take leave indefinitely. After that, my mum became my full-time carer, cooking me meals that Id tentatively push around my plate, rationing out my medication to make sure I didnt take too much, and going out with me for walks. It felt like my life was on pause.

Around this time, my doctor began to notice something. Id been seeing her for the past year and she was unlike any other medical professional Id met. However bad things became, she always believed I had the strength to get past them. Through my regular visits, she began to pick up on some patterns: how I always seemed to be at my worst the day before my period was due. She thought I could have something called premenstrual dysphoric disorder, or PMDD. I had never heard of it. Put simply, PMDD is like PMS Extra, and affects around 5.5% of women, driving around 30% of sufferers to attempt suicide. Starting, on average, at around the time of ovulation and usually ending when a period arrives around two weeks later, the symptoms can include extreme anxiety, psychosis, depression and, at worst, wanting to harm yourself and others. Unlike PMS, PMDD can be so debilitating that work, social life and relationships may become impossible to manage for more than a few days a month. The cause is not yet clear, but its thought that people with PMDD are more sensitive to the hormonal changes that come with your cycle.

At first I thought the idea was silly: surely there was no way that a period could have this much impact? But over the years, Id been tracking my menstrual cycle on a calendar and writing about my mental health on a blog. When I looked at the two side by side, I was floored: every time my period was due, my mental health plummeted. Everything matched up. In 2016, aged 26, I was officially diagnosed with PMDD.

It was thought that the hormone progesterone was sending me haywire, so I was put on a three-month trial of oestrogen-only hormone therapy, which suppresses the menstrual cycle.

Different treatments work for different people, but hormone therapy worked for me. The doctors then put me on a temporary chemical-induced menopause. It simulated what life would be like if I was to have a hysterectomy and my body stopped naturally producing progesterone. It was the best three months of my life. I didnt have a single down day. In disbelief, I made a bucket list, determined to reclaim my life. They were minor things to most people, like going to Planet Hollywood and the hot-air Balloon Fiesta in Bristol, and visiting the Leaning Tower Of Pisa. My best friend and I booked a four-day trip to Italy. Despite planning to come home if my mental health should plummet, there wasnt a single difficult moment. Gazing up at the Leaning Tower Of Pisa on my first holiday in five years, I breathed in the warm Italian air. Then and there, I decided that I couldnt go back to life as it was before.

One afternoon, two years after my diagnosis, my doctors broke something to me. The chemical menopause that had brought me so much bliss wasnt a long-term solution because denying your body progesterone completely for an extended period of time can cause dangerous abnormal cell growth. Doctors told me I should consider having a full hysterectomy, removing my uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes. While less invasive methods work for many other people with PMDD, sadly I was at the end of the treatment plan and this was the only option I had left.

All the way home, I juggled the two options in my mind: did I really want a future where I couldnt have my own child? Id wanted to have a family ever since I was little. How would my mum feel? Shed always wanted grandkids. But that night, chatting things through with her, I realised that the PMDD would eventually mean she would lose me. It had caused me to self-destruct. I couldnt keep putting my family and friends through overdoses. How could I have a child when I couldnt even care for myself?

My hysterectomy was booked for 7th May 2019. It was a gorgeous late spring day and I woke early, feeling galvanised and strong. This was going to be the first day of the rest of my life. But still, a seed of doubt niggled: was I doing the right thing? What if it didnt work? Mum and Dad came with me, and I had packed my overnight bag with a fluffy uterus draped in a superman cape that my mates had given me for good luck. I wore a T-shirt emblazoned with See you later, ovulator, and on the way to the hospital, Christina Aguileras Fighter blared from the car stereo.

The procedure lasted two and a half hours. I was given an epidural and a general anaesthetic, and had keyhole surgery. When I woke up, I was woozy and couldnt feel my legs, but I couldnt believe it had actually happened. Mum and Dad were there to greet me. I stayed in hospital for two nights and made such a good recovery, physically and mentally, that on the day that I was discharged, I joined my friends at the pub.

Since the hysterectomy, I am living the life I always wanted, but never felt was possible. Every single one of my PMDD symptoms has vanished. I can now picture the future owning a house and having children; things, until now, Ive never been stable enough to seriously imagine. I have frozen my eggs and I would like to try surrogacy, but expenses and fertility-clinic costs total around 30,000, so Im not sure thats an option. My dream is to foster or adopt one day whether Im in a relationship or not. I havent even thought about dating.

Of course, the hysterectomy cant erase the pain Ive been through. It cant give me back the lost years I spent detached from friends or unable to nurture a stable relationship, the many nights I lay sobbing under my duvet or the hurt I caused myself and those I love. Now, though, the eating disorder that plagued my life for years has disappeared, and I havent self-harmed since my surgery. The operation set me free. Ill have hormone-replacement therapy for life, but its a small price to pay for having my world back. Many women who suffer from PMDD take their own lives. I could have been one of them.

I threw a hysterectomy party to celebrate the procedure. As my friends and I played pin the egg on the uterus and had strawberry Baileys shots out of syringes, I caught sight of myself laughing. It felt like the first time Id done it in years.

Menopausal women taking hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may have increased protection from Covid-19, scientists suspect.

Research led by King's College and NHS England is expected to establish within weeks why men have been more likely to fall seriously ill.

Questions assessing the potential protective effects of hormonal therapies, such as HRT or the pill, are being added to the Covid Symptom Study.

The app, which now tracks more than three million people across the UK, is aiming to develop a clearer picture after researchers in Wuhan, China, found women with lower levels of oestrogen typically suffered worse effects.

Dr Louise Newson, an advisor to NHS England, GP and menopause specialist, said the information could be particularly important for menopausal key workers considering whether to take HRT.

"We're seeing all the time that men are more likely to succumb to Covid, sadly, and more likely to go into intensive care," she said.

"Women have this ability to fight viruses a lot more efficiently and the cells that fight infection actually have oestrogen receptors on them so this means they respond to oestrogen and oestrogen can actually reprogramme these cells, make them more effective and also increase their number."

She described the research as "really exciting" because "if there is some protection (from oestrogen), it means that women who are menopausal who take HRT - which we know has more benefits than risks for the majority of women - might be able to have some protection".

"For me it's a really important question that we will hopefully have answered in the next couple of weeks. Not fully answered, but it will give some more understanding which is what we need."

One year in, leaders of a student group dedicated to community support for transgender and nonbinary students hosted almost a dozen events in collaboration with multicultural groups on campus.

Transgender and Non-binary Students of GW, a student organization formed last April as a supportive space for trans and nonbinary students, collaborated with more than 10 other organizations to educate students on issues important to the community like hormone replacement therapy. Executive board members said they plan to build on their first years efforts by keeping all of their events annual and expanding this years Transgender Awareness Week into a two-week LGBTQ celebration.

Junior Aedy Miller, the organizations current director of marketing and public relations and president-elect, said TNBS members were key leaders in facilitating social and educational events for Transgender Awareness Week in mid-November. Miller said the group planned educational and speaker events aimed at creating an inclusionary space for students of all identities, like a workshop with Students Against Sexual Assault about sexual assault and survivorship in the trans community.

Trans Awareness Week this year encompassed 15 events intended to empower transgender and nonbinary students and educate students about the community and issues affecting it. Student leaders said the weeks events, like a spoken word mic night celebrating trans artists, will happen again at Septembers LGBTQ celebration, which will also feature a mini-Pride event after Junes Pride festival was canceled.

The way that we sought to build community was by thinking about those who werent in the rooms when we were planning meetings, Miller said. Always thinking about who can we work with too, like different organizations, different University departments, who can be worked with to create a welcoming and affirming space for students of all identities.

Miller said the organization expanded its outreach into the D.C. community during Transgender Awareness week through a sticker fundraiser with the Organization of Latino American Students, which raised more than $700 for Casa Ruby the only D.C. organization providing direct services, like housing, for low- or no-income queer individuals.

The organization was founded to create a space dedicated specifically for trans and nonbinary students with a dual focus on empowering the community on campus, and also working in the queer community in D.C and not just being a social organization, but also an advocacy organization, they said.

Miller said the organization had planned a postcard campaign directed at state legislatures enacting legislation blocking transgender youth from accessing hormones or participating in sports for International Transgender Day of Visibility on March 31 before students were sent home for the semester because of the COVID-19 outbreak.

After the event was canceled amid the pandemic, TNBS members decided to use Discord, a virtual chat website similar to GroupMe, to allow students to continue communicating with each other and to offer support to each other after moving back home.

Within the community there are some folks who just dont even have a home to go back to, Miller said. On the flip side, if folks have a place to go back to, people either have to go back in the closet, are put into toxic or even like emotionally abusive situations where theyre constantly misgendered or dont feel affirmed in their home and just not safe in their home.

Harvey Tate, the groups incoming vice president, said student leaders partnered with the Multicultural Student Services Centers LGBTQIA Resource Center to augment resources available to students, like chest binders for students transitioning, as part of their goal to advocate for greater representation of trans and nonbinary students.

Tate said members have also met with Student Association and housing officials to discuss University policies about changing ones name and about housing that does not represent trans and nonbinary students. He said the housing department currently assigns students rooms based on sex instead of gender, creating problematic situations for students who identify as gender-neutral or transgender who are then forced to chose a gender or are stuck in potentially harmful roommate situations.

Id rather fix the system than keep trying to Band-Aid patch it, Tate said. So the end goal is to fix the system. But thats a long-term goal that we cant necessarily get done in our first year, because we have to build those avenues of trust and work toward them.

Tate said the organization partnered with the Division for Student Affairs in the spring to run two Engagement in Leadership Seminars, sessions all student organizations are required to attend aimed at advancing student leadership. He said the sessions walked students through common misconceptions on transitioning and answered questions students may otherwise have been uncomfortable asking outside of the workshop.

A part of our goal as an organization is to educate as well as advocate, so the ELS sessions were an important part of that, Tate said.

Freshman Sophia Packer, TNBSs treasurer, said the organization earned an Excellence in Diversity award in April from DSA for demonstrating a significant commitment to diversity and inclusive excellence throughout the year. Packer said the organization has worked to include students of varying perspectives in events held throughout the year, like Transgiving, to build an inclusive space on campus.

It was really a way to recognize how a lot of us dont necessarily have the best home lives and a place for essentially a found family to come together and eat this delicious, enormous meal and just spend time feeling safe and comfortable, Packer said.
