On May 17th, 2022, we and our partners at GLSEN Maryland announced that we regretfully had to postpone the Get Active Youth Summit event that was originally scheduled for Saturday, May 28th.
We apologize for the inconvenience we caused to those who showed up for the event this past Saturday.
We thank you for showing a commitment to attend our event and hope to see you soon. We are thrilled to inform you that we and GLSEN MD will hold the Youth Summit event this fall in November! So, please stay tuned for details coming soon. Thank you all for all your support and look forward to seeing you in November!
Sports and Transphobia - Transforming Together Podcast
On this episode of Transforming Together, the HopeWorks Podcast, MC Carey (they/them) brings in three guests for a deep dive conversation around sports and transphobia. Joined by the two founders of Unmatched Athlete, Justin Fair & Olanrele Oni, and trans health and sports advocate from Trans Maryland, Jack Mirabella, together they unpack the heavy wave of anti-transgender sports bills that have been hitting state legislatures all over the country as well as the undeniably important work of creating safe space for queer and trans youth to engage in sports. Sports are meant for everyone regardless of gender identity or sexual orientation and no one understands that better than Unmatched Athlete which works to create a safe and inclusive space for queer and trans youth to engage in sports and movement.
