4th Saturday Support Circle Plus: The Truth of Transition

Today’s Program: The Truth of Transition

In recent years, there has been a great deal of anti-trans rhetoric, particularly in the arena of youth transitioning. This presentation will explain what transition actually means, shedding light on the fallacy of the anti-trans arguments. What does pre-adolescent transition look like? Is it dangerous for an adolescent to transition? How do puberty-blockers work? How young is too young to transition? These questions and more will be addressed in The Truth of Transition.

Joining a PFLAG Connects Support Circle

Our PFLAG Connects online circles function a little differently than our in-person support circles. Here’s how to join a Circle:

Learn how to Circle online before you join the meeting by reading the PFLAG Connects Participant’s Guide on our website.

Click on the big REGISTER button at the top right of this page. You’ll be taken to an e-registration form. Please fill it out and submit it at least 1 hour before the start of the Support Circle. If you’re under 18, a parent or guardian must attend with you. Tip: include your pronouns in the Last Name box. Example: Chelsea Circler (them, they)

We’ll send you an email with the meeting join link and optional dial-in instructions. Save this email! It contains your only ticket to the Circle.

Download the Zoom Meetings app from the App Store for your digital device.

Join on-time. Better yet, join early. The Circle Waiting Room opens 10 minutes before the circle starts and closes shortly after starting time. For your security, no late admissions. When the host begins setting up the meeting room, the Waiting Room will open. At the scheduled start time, the host will admit you to the meeting room.

If you have any questions, send us an email at supportcircles@pflagpdx.org.
