Trans Inclusion Working Group

The Trans Inclusion Working Group is a collaborative group of students, staff, and faculty who work together to advance gender equity at Reed and to support holistic wellness for trans, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming Reed community members. Initiatives that the working group has focused on include:

• adding more gender inclusive restrooms across campus and improving the campus map to clearly communicate the locations of all gender restrooms
• updating databases and systems across campus to improve procedures regarding name changes and updating pronoun and gender options
• working with Residence Life to make the housing registration process more trans inclusive
• working with the Health and Counseling Center to provide hormone therapy and gender affirming care
• bringing guest speakers to campus and providing training opportunities for staff and faculty

At the event, we will play games, give out prizes, and arrange our volunteer Mentor program/Buddy system to connect trans mentors and mentees to one another over the course of the year, in order to make friends and form a community support system.
