SUMMARY:PFLAG SOFFA Online Support Group
DESCRIPTION:It's often said that when a loved one transitions\, everyone around them transitions too. PFLAG Denver's SOFFA group acknowledges that sometimes those closest to a transgender\, nonbinary\, or gender nonconforming person may need assistance to better provide support. Regardless of where you are on your allyship journey\, our peer-led groups provide brave space for you to adapt and develop expanded capacities of empathy and understanding. Through each other's stories\, we gain perspective\, we hold accountability\, and we celebrate joys. We learn coping strategies that can foster personal growth and resilience so that we may better support our loved ones. The collective insights and shared strength found in SOFFA can help individuals navigate their difficulties with increased emotional support and a sense of community\, ultimately contributing to their overall well-being and healing journey. \nRegistration is REQUIRED for SOFFA Online!! \nYou can do so HERE!

SUMMARY:Heightened Scrutiny - Documentary Screening
DESCRIPTION:An ACLU attorney fights to overturn the ban on gender-affirming care\n\n\nHEIGHTENED SCRUTINY follows Chase Strangio\, ACLU attorney and the first out trans person to argue before the Supreme Court\, as he fights a high-stakes legal battle to overturn Tennessee’s ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth (United States v. Skrmetti). \nThe film exposes the dangerous role of mainstream media in fueling anti-trans legislation\, uncovering how biased coverage drives hate\, endangers lives\, and threatens democracy itself. With insights from journalists like Jelani Cobb\, Lydia Polgreen\, and Gina Chua\, and activists like Laverne Cox\, the story dismantles anti-trans disinformation and highlights its devastating real-world impact. \nWith the dangerous SCOTUS decision upholding the ban on life-saving healthcare\, HEIGHTENED SCRUTINY is an urgent call to action against bigotry and injustice. \nDate: Thursday\, October 9 \nTime: 7:15 PM \nLocation: Alamo Drafthouse Cinema Sloans Lake - 4255 W Colfax Ave\, Denver\, CO 80204 \nTickets: drafthouse.com/denver/show/heightened-scrutiny?cinemaId=0402
