Check out The Teaching Transgender Toolkit

"As an increasing number of transgender people come out, there is an increased need for the provision of culturally competent and fully inclusive education and services. Currently, there are limited resources available for facilitators and trainers to use while conducting trainings to help raise awareness.  To address this gap, Dr. Eli R. Green & Luca Maurer, MS, have written The Teaching Transgender Toolkit: A Facilitator’s Guide to Increasing Knowledge, Reducing Prejudice & Building Skills. This book is a collection of resources and lesson plans for teaching transgender-related information for a variety of audiences, including: high school and college students, educational professionals, medical, mental health and social service providers, community groups, faith communities, parents/families, and more.

The Teaching Transgender Toolkit is the first of its kind and is based on decades of transgender training experience and current best practices. This guide enables facilitators and trainers to provide the most accurate and effective practical training, toward the goals of increasing awareness, empathy and skills. As a result of these trainings, participants will be better prepared to acknowledge, support, and engage with transgender people in an affirming manner."
