Transhood Can Do Good
In October, HBO released Transhood , a compelling and beautifully made documentary that captures the journey of four families over the course of five years and helps humanize the experiences of transgender youth.
Debi Jackson, a founding member of HRC’s Parents for Transgender Equality Council, and her daughter Avery are one of the four families, all living in Kansas City, who opened their homes to the filmmaker with the hope that their stories their honesty, their authenticity, their struggles will help other families who are on a similar journey to understand and support their transgender or gender expansive children.
