As the North Suburban YMCA responds to the community’s evolving social needs through its core values of support, inclusivity, and positive impact, a group of Y staff members recently attended a comprehensive workshop on gender training. The “Gender 101” workshop was facilitated by the staff at Lurie Children’s Hospital’s Potocsnak Family Division of Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine and included an overview of gender concepts, best practices to creating a gender inclusive environment, and offered practical tools for implementing gender inclusion within the Y’s community.
