"BIO FOR LINDEN G. JORDAN, MA, JD
President of PFLAG Skagit
Linden has had a career that included attorney, mental health counselor and college professor. In his retirement, he works with PFLAG Skagit to support, educate about and advocate for the LGBTQ+ community, friends and allies. His goal is to help others understand the complexities of gender which will help our community receive the respect, care and dignity that they deserve. He is part of the Speakers Bureau and has given over a hundred trainings locally and beyond for making the world a more welcoming place for the LGBTQ+ community.
He will be discussing The Science of Gender. We are taught that it is all so simple, yet nothing could be further than the truth. We will explore the world of in utero development as it applies to the formation of sexual anatomy and our gender identity. You will understand why gender identity is so critical and so interesting.
This will help you as you work with clients who are part of our community and who encounter the health care system which often is very challenging for them. This will help you understand the importance of names, pronouns and respect for these individuals."
