Gendered Intelligence Mentoring Service - Free Support for Trans Students in the UK
genderedintelligence:
Gendered Intelligence is now taking on new clients for our mentoring service, which is available to trans students in education in the UK. The service is confidential and is at no cost to the student. This is an ideal opportunity to sign up if you are starting or continuing education in the next academic year (2012 - 2013).
The idea is to provide one-on-one mentoring sessions with a Gendered Intelligence trans mentor, to help trans / questioning students who may be struggling with managing gender issues, experiencing some of the challenges of living as a trans person in education or may have existing mental health issues which are exacerbated by being trans or questioning their gender identity.
We can provide practical support with social and medical transition (such as assistance with information, name changes, referrals, etc). We can also advise on organisation and study skills, careers, housing and financial information. We can provide advocacy support - to ensure your needs are met within your university or college, by talking to academic staff / university administration about any issues you you may be having with you, or on your behalf.
For full information see our Mentoring page. If you think you could benefit from mentoring with Gendered Intelligence please contact us at admin@genderedintelligence.co.uk.
Please share widely.
Please keep spreading the word about our mentoring service! If you’re a trans student and think you might benefit, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.
