We provide anti-racist training and consultation from a decolonial perspective that honors the ancient knowledge of multiple genders.

Training

Our workshops, presentations, and trainings span a variety of topics. Agencies, organizations, universities, professional service providers and businesses seek us out especially to become more trans-friendly and affirming. If you’re investing in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) work, our group would love to be part of the journey! Offerings range from 1-3 hour workshops to full-day trainings.

Past trainings include:

  • Trans 101

  • Trauma and Trans Communities

  • Ethics of Trauma Work with Two Spirit, Trans, and Gender-Expansive People

  • Cultural Awareness and the 2SLGBTQIA+ community

  • Improving Healthcare Settings for Trans Patients

  • Providing Kink and Poly Affirming Care

  • Affirming Care with Gender Expansive Children, Youth and their Families

  • Affirming Work with Black, Indigenous, and People of Color

  • Healing Toxic Masculinity with Men of Color

  • Disparities through the Lifespan

Consultation

We are also happy to offer ongoing consulting relationships. We provide “audits” or assessments to organizations to make specific recommendations for improvements, as well as suggesting further opportunities for institutional growth. We are experienced at learning an organization's challenges and designing a consulting plan to effectively and efficiently address them. Tavi and the team offer organizational consulting to assist companies in creating anti-racist, anti-oppressive, truly trans-affirming workplaces. This allows companies to honestly advertise themselves as equitable and LGBTQ+ affirming, and to effectively recruit and retain talented individuals.

Meet the Team

In addition to Tavi Hawn’s expertise, we collaborate with two social workers who can provide topic-specific offerings. We will match you with a trainer or consultant that best fits your needs.

    I’m a proud Morgan State grad with clinical and macro-level social work. I care deeply about my communities- BIPOC and trans. My experiences working in the public defender’s office, as well as the public school system, inform my training content related to working with LGBTQIA+ individuals involved in the justice system, creating affirming school environments for QTBIPOC children and teens, healing the effects of toxic masculinity in masculine people of color. My clinical experience informs my trainings on writing gender-affirming surgery letters and other trans-related topics.
