Check out my interview with Transgender School’s founders, Bridget Sampson and Jackie Thornhill. They are a loving mother and her transgender daughter with a vision of saving lives, keeping families together and making school, work, and all spaces safe for transgender people. Transgender School offers courses to educate allies about how to support the transgender people in their lives. They also host weekly Facebook Livestream Q&A sessions on Saturdays from 4-4:30 pm, are starting a podcast called Transgender School Podcast (released Feb 2), are building a YouTube channel, and much more.

Transgender School was founded to make the world more compassionate toward and aware of the experiences of transgender people. If you are a transgender person, have a transgender person in your life, or want to learn more about the community, check out their helpful resources and participate in their live chats and courses. Their first webinar is designed for parents, family and community members, friends, teachers, co-workers, or anyone who wants to be a better ally to transgender people.
