On November 17 from 3:00pm to 4:30pm, join us for a discussion centring the expansiveness of trans lives. We will be exploring trans identities, experiences of transition (or not), as well as some of the possibilities and futures for trans people that we don’t often get to see.

We will be joined by a special guest facilitator, Avi Magidsohn. Avi is a Black, Jewish trans guy who has the great fortune to support trans, non-binary and gender expansive students, staff and families at the TDSB. More importantly, Avi is a partner, a parent, a friend, and an uncontrolled buyer of Lego sets! As Avi approaches retirement, he hopes to move to a more rural location and cook good food, grow things, and foster pregnant cats!

All are welcome to join the discussion to explore the intersectional realities of trans lives, trans parenting and families, and the challenges and joyful possibilities that trans life can bring. We hope to see you there.

About QTC:

Queer and Trans Connections (QTC) runs Thursdays, 3pm-4:30pm.

QTC is open to all University of Toronto 2SLGBTQ+ and questioning students. This program will provide an opportunity for 2SLGBTQ+ and questioning students to explore identities, look at a range of 2SLGBTQ+ issues through an anti-racist, multi-dimensional lens, share personal and community experiences, examine current events, and connect with peers. Each week will feature a new topic and sometimes a guest facilitator.
