603 Equality is offering a Deescalation and Self-Defense training led by Impact Boston. This is a scenario based training to develop verbal deescalation and basic physical self-defense skills specifically for the trans/queer/gender non-conforming community. This will include responses to bullying, harassment and bathroom enforcement scenarios. This training is centered in a trauma-informed, disability-aware, queer-positive, feminist approach, and your feelings are welcomed.

It is a seven hour training, with active participation. We will provide lunch. Participants will sign a waiver form. Minors are welcome if a parent signs a waiver for them.

Space is limited, at 15-20 attendees.

We are requesting a donation of at least $25 to hold your space - please contact us if this is a barrier.

Please contact us at deescalation@603equality.org to let us know if you have specific accessibility needs.
