The Facts About Transgender Student Athletes
Opponents of transgender people are flooding platforms with dangerous and calculated disinformation, seeking to super-charge their politics by targeting transgender, non-binary and gender non-conforming student athletes for discrimination at school.

Transgender Students: Know Your Rights
Earlier this year, Gender Justice announced a major settlement with the Anoka-Hennepin school district on behalf of our client Nick, a transgender man and former student athlete in the district.
The Court’s decision in Nick’s case represented a big win for transgender students across the state. What had formerly been merely “suggested guidance” from the Department of Education is now enshrined in Minnesota law: Trans students are entitled to use the bathrooms and changing facilities that align with their gender identity.
