Supporting Healthy Gender Identity Development and Understanding Gender Diversity Across Culture

When: 05/07/2025  5:30pm -     Pacific Time

Where: Online

Sponsoring Organization: Waldorf Early Childhood Association of North America

How does gender develop in young children? How can I support my child in developing a healthy gender identity? In this workshop, we will explore answers to these questions. We will learn about the spectrum of understandings of gender across cultures, different beliefs about the way that gender identity develops, and the ways that gender is expressed over a lifetime.
