From Acceptance to Celebration
In collaboration with JF&CS, SOJOURN runs a group for parents of gender-expansive children providing education, resources, and community facilitated by mental health professionals.
A 6-week series for parents of gender-expansive 9-12 year olds, as well as a concurrent group for their children, starts on August 16, 2022. A 6-week series for the parents of teens, as well as a concurrent group for their teens, starts on October 25.
Sessions occur weekly on Tuesdays at 5:00 PM for 6-week increments. All sessions take place at the JF&CS Dunwoody office.

"My sounding proud or positive in any way had a great deal to do with you both and your program ... I may have felt successful enough at acceptance. But celebration is something else. I am celebrating (my child's) journey and mine. I was terrified of facing the school situation. I was even apprehensive about online group therapy. But I trusted my gut. It paid off, so I guess I learned to trust myself. This experience has been very freeing really. And that’s a lot to celebrate!"
