Care considerations for trans and intersex communities with eating disorders

This training will contextualize eating disorders within the lives, experiences, and overall health needs of transgender, nonbinary, and intersex communities. The training will go beyond the introductory level and is most suitable for those who already have a basic understanding of sex and gender diversity and transgender identities. In addition to reviewing the importance of affirming language and terminology, the training will provide a framework for understanding eating disorders in transgender, nonbinary, and intersex populations as an intersectional social justice issue.
