DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday\, June 3\, 2026 \nTime: 12–1:30 p.m. \nGuest Facilitator: Rae Jardine (she/they)\, MA\, RSSW\, CC-PMH \nDescription: This reflective workshop is designed for 2SLGBTQ+ parents\, caregivers and prospective parents who are interested in raising children outside of rigid gender norms. Grounded in anti-oppressive\, mental health–informed practice\, this session explores what gender-expansive parenting can look like in a world deeply structured by the binary. \nParticipants will be supported in building responsive parenting practices that center autonomy\, curiosity and affirming care. Whether you are already parenting or preparing to\, this workshop offers space to reflect\, learn and connect with others on similar journeys. \nParticipants will: \n\nexplore what gender expansive parenting can look like in practice across different developmental stages\nreflect on personal beliefs\, experiences\, values and socialization related to gender\nidentify common challenges\, including family\, community and institutional resistance and constraints\nlearn strategies to support children’s curiosity\, autonomy\, expression and identity exploration\ndevelop language and tools for interrupting gender policing and navigating conversations about gender with others\n\nThis is a supportive\, identity-affirming space that honours diverse parenting approaches and recognizes there is no single “right” way to parent beyond gender.
