The collaborative would be comprised of graduate programs in school psychology across the country that wish to formally and collectively engage in explicitly anti-racist training and action within their programs. This collaborative will provide opportunities for graduate students of color across the country to work together, engage in funded research, and participate in those opportunities that will enable equity in opportunity and labor for faculty positions...I expect the full development of this collaborative to take a few months.

LGBTQIA+ Resources NASP Condemns State and Local Efforts to Undermine Transgender Youth Rights and Well-Being Gender-affirming care, or care that is designed to affirm an individual's gender identity, is best practice in supporting child and adolescent health. This has been explicitly recognized by the American Academy of Pediatrics (see this section), the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (first paragraph), the American Psychological Association both alone (see Guideline 11, page 846) and in a joint statement with NASP (see page 8), the American Psychiatric Association (bottom of page 1), and others. APA Guidelines for Practice with Transgender and Gender Noncomfirming People APA Guidelines for Psychological Practice with Sexual Minority Persons APA Guidelines and Resolutions Related to LGBT Psychology National Center for School Mental Health Message National Center for School Mental Health Supporting Trans Staff and Students Biden-Harris Administration Advances Equality and Visibility for Transgender Americans World Professional Association for Transgender Health (2012). Standards of care for the health of transsexual, transgender, and gender nonconforming people (7th version). Although school psychologists don't directly help students transition, many questions come up in school psychology forums about the treatments trans youth receive. The Standard of Care outline psychotherapy and medical care of transgender youth and adults. The Standards are a free pdf and an excellent resource. The eighth version was released this spring but not yet adopted. Susan Stryker is an historian at the University of Arizona and has two excellent books. Susan is a woman of transgender history. Her co-author for the Reader is Stephen Whittle, a trans man and professor in the School of Law at Manchester Metropolitan University; Stephen is a leader in Press for Change, an advocacy group in the UK. Stryker, S. (2017). Transgender history: the roots of today's revolution (Second edition). Seal Press. This is a very readable history of trans issues over the last 125 years. Stryker, S. 9 and Whittle, S. (Eds.) (2006). The transgender studies reader. Routledge. This is a massive (758 page) collection of 50 influential articles between 1880 and the 1990s drawn from the medical, psychological, sociological, and community literature. There is also a second volume available of more recent articles, but the first volume is I think useful for understanding the scholarly thought behind what had been done to us (trans people). Susan is a documentarian. "Screaming Queens: The riot at Compton's cafeteria". This film is available from KQED and may be available from PBS video - it is available in multiple parts on YouTube. The Compton's Riot occurred in 1966, at the corner of Turk and Market in San Francisco, on the edge of the Tenderloin. Compton's was open 24 hours, and was a placewhere trans people hung out while working in the sex trade. To understand why they were working in the sex trade is to understand many of the risks currently facing our youth. The police would regularly arrest trans people, and one night they revolted. The site of the riot is four blocks from the NASP convention hotel in 2011. Another film that may be useful, especially for psychopathology classes, is "Diagnosing difference", about trans people and DSM-IV. I have taught a developmental psychopathology course by opening with "gender identity disorder" (in DSM-IV) days to illustrate the issues involved in identifying disorder. Julia Serano is a trans woman and professor of biochemistry at UC-Berkeley. She is widely known throughout the trans community for her writings on transfeminism. Serano, J. (2007). Whipping girl: a transsexual woman on sexism and the scapegoating of femininity. Seal Press. Laura Erickson-Schroth is a professor of psychiatry at Columbia University Medical Center. Erickson-Schroth, L. (Ed.). (2022). Trans bodies, trans selves, (Second edition). Oxford University Press. Modeled on the 1973 Our Bodies, Ourselves by the Boston Women's Health Collective, this was intended to be a health care guide for trans people, by trans people, but it is broader than that. Encyclopedic in scope, covering trans history, intersectionality, employment and legal issues, developmental stages, medical transition, sexuality and family development. Stephanie Brill is a founder and has been a board member of Gender Spectrum, which provides a variety of support for families and schools. Brill, S.A., and Pepper, R.
