Navigating New Laws seeks to equip social workers and other mental health professionals with the clinical and technical skills needed to aid the critical mental health needs of transgender and gender-diverse youth across Ohio. This interactive training is responsive to ever-evolving policy changes within Ohio legislation like HB 68 and goes beyond the basics to arm mental health providers with the tools necessary to support the complex needs of gender-diverse clients in the face of hostile political environments like how to change documentation, informed consent, and other clinical processes.
