Join us for our May 25, 2022 webinar.

Body Size, Shape, and Gender Expression: Considerations for Working with Transgender and Gender Diverse Clients

Speaker: Whitney Linsenmeyer, PhD, RD, LD

Body size, body shape, and gender expression are uniquely linked for many transgender and gender diverse individuals. This webinar will address weight management considerations for nutrition professionals working with transgender clients, with attention to the prevalence of eating disorders, overweight and obesity in the transgender population. Gender-affirming communication and the intersection of weight and gender stigmas will be addressed.

We anticipate this webinar will be approved for one hour CPEU.
