Keynote talk by Alex Clare-Young at Gathering Voices 2021 - Working together to create sanctuary

Trans and non-binary people experience a high level of trauma in faith-based contexts.

Alex has worked with Creating Sanctuary to form a guide to trans-specific safeguarding in churches and faith-based groups and communities and addresses some questions:
Why is this necessary?
Why is this troubling?
How can churches do better?

Alex is co-chair of the Open Table Network, a member of the Creating Sanctuary Core Team and a trustee of Inclusive Church.
