My Child is Trans, Now What?

Join us for an evening with transgender advocate and educator Ben V. Greene as he discusses his latest book: My Child is Trans, Now What? A Joy-Centered Approach to Support.

In his book, Greene breaks the mold by offering a judgement-free guide to people across generations, from millennial parents to members of older generations who may not have had previous positive exposure to the trans community. He explains what to expect, what systems exist to support trans youth, and what loved ones can do to help with humor, personal stories, and compassion.

All are welcome to this free event. Join us in-person or via Zoom.

  • Ben V. Greene is a transgender advocate and educator who has spoken internationally on topics surrounding transgender inclusion. After coming out at 15 in a small town, Greene has devoted his career to spreading empathy, education and storytelling around the trans experience, and has spoken for companies, hospitals, schools, religious organizations and government entities sharing what it means to be transgender and how to show up as an ally.  He is a fierce advocate for transgender youth, regularly speaking in their defense at the Missouri State Capitol, and is the author of the book My Child is Trans, Now What? A Joy Centered Approach to Support. Greene is passionate about educating others from a place of compassion—no matter where they’re starting from.

  • My Child Is Trans, Now What? is for parents and loved ones of transgender youth and young adults at any stage in their journey. Trans education free of judgment is in short supply, and this book combines personal stories, key resources, and emotional support to guide those who wish to help trans youth but don't know how.
