scholarship that explores best practices in
working with transgender and gender diverse

the intersections of TGDCs, neurodivergence and
EDs/DE. Ultimately, this course will explore the
prevalence of EDs/DE in transgender communities,

affirming considerations that reduce barriers to
care, and increase and provide ethical, competent,
and gender-affirming care for all gender diverse
clients.
