Gender Affirming Communication

Gender-affirming verbal communication is uniquely important for the well-being and self-expression of transgender and gender-diverse individuals to feel validated, safe, and respected by those around them. 

Research has shown that when someone’s voice doesn’t align with their gender identity, it can have a detrimental effect on their overall quality of life. This can not only be dysphoric for the individual, but also can jeopardize their safety.

Training your voice and communication can not only help those who are struggling with their gender identity, but helps all of us sound closer to “the real you”. Learn more at Finding Your True Voice: A Guide to Gender-Affirming Verbal Communication
