This workshop was created as part of the TGNC Rights Incubation Project at the Sorensen Center for International Peace and Justice at CUNY Law and co-presented by staff from Brooklyn Legal Services. Through collaboration with campus representatives, the Project aims to create access to legal information and support for TGNC and LGBTQIA+ students across CUNY. The workshop provides information about legal protections for gender identity and expression-based discrimination in NYC specific to TGNC people. We aim to provide practical information about how to navigate the legal system in New York, with a realistic understanding of the utility and limits of these systems. The goal is for participants to gain a better understanding of existing protections in employment and public accommodations in order to strengthen their own, and wider community, advocacy efforts.
