“Responding to the Anti-Trans Movement” | Pt. 1 w/ Emily Parker

May 20, 2025 @ 7:00 pm - 8:15 pm

Join Emily Parker (Communications Director, UUFANJ) for a viewing party of parts 1 and 2 of the 3-part video training series: “Responding to the Anti-Trans Movement.” You are welcome to join us to watch the first two videos together, on May 20th at 7pm, or to view the first two videos on your own time.

Then, be sure to join us on May 27 at 7pm, to watch the final video, followed by a discussion and Q & A moderated by Alex Kapitan!


At our General Assembly in June 2024 the UUA issued the following statement: “On behalf of the member congregations and communities of the UUA, we proclaim that our principles and values unequivocally commit our faith to honor and celebrate the full spectrum of gender identity and expression.”

Our faith tradition calls upon all of us to care for those most at risk.  During this time of relentless attack on the trans community, as Unitarian Universalists we stand by  trans children, youth and adults.  However, in order to be effective allies, and do no harm, we must educate ourselves.

We invite all UU clergy, staff, members and friends to please join us for a special program, “Responding to the Anti-Trans Movement,” presented by our UU Faith Action NJ Reproductive Justice Task Force and the Transforming Hearts Collective.

“Responding to the Anti-Trans Movement” is a 3-part video series.  Participants are asked to watch the first two videos prior to our program.  We will then gather over Zoom on May 27, 2025 at 7pm to watch the final video, followed by a discussion and Q & A moderated by Alex Kapitan.


Registration is forthcoming.
