OCASI-PSI Cordially invites you to participate in the upcoming webinar:

Person, Purpose, and Persecution: Building community by, for, and with Trans and Non-binary Newcomers

DATE: Monday, March 27, 2023

TIME: 12 PM - 1 PM EDT

We are excited to host Tatiana Ferguson (she/her), Co-founder of Black Queer Youth Collective and EDI specialist, in conversation with Sizwe Inkingi (she/her), Program Officer, Rainbow Railroad, and former Bilingual PSI Coordinator at OCASI for an one-hour webinar. 

Tatiana will first review data from Trans PULSE Canada Report to share insights about Trans and Non-binary newcomers to Canada. The second part will be a candid discussion about resettlement and finding & building community by, for, and with Trans and Non-binary refugees, im/migrants, and newcomers. Tatiana and Sizwe will talk about identity, programs and supports, and why we need more Trans-led newcomer spaces. There will be a Q&A period at the end.
