You’re invited to hear a transgender mother’s (Jessica Lynn) challenges to parental rights on Wednesday, October 17, at 4 p.m. in Argyros Forum, 209ABC.
Jessica Lynn is a world-renowned transgender advocate and activist. Her experiences as a transgender woman and parent led her to dedicate her life to spreading awareness and acceptance for gender non-conforming communities around the world. Over the last several years, Jessica has crisscrossed the globe sharing the story of her journey over 600 times in 18 different countries and is now internationally considered one of the foremost transgender speakers due to her dynamic, refreshingly honest speaking style and signature ask-me-anything Q&A sessions. Fortunately, Jessica’s travels and presentations have caught the attention of several prestigious institutions. She has been serving as a Kinsey Institute Global Ambassador at Indiana University for over a year now. And, after spending a great amount of time speaking in the UK, she is now a Stonewall School Role Model and a speaker to the medical community by request of the National Health Service England.
This is open to all Chapman students, faculty, and staff.
This is a Wilkinson College & Crean College sponsored event.
