THRIVE: Binder, Taping, Tucking Program

Topic/Theme: Binder, Taping, & Tucking Program

Description: Join us for our new “Binder, Taping, & Tucking Program,” where we’ll cover essential techniques for safe and effective gender-affirming practices. This program is designed to educate individuals on the proper use of binders, as well as safe methods for taping and tucking, helping to enhance comfort, safety, and confidence. We will discuss the risks and best practices to ensure these techniques are done in a healthy, sustainable way.

In addition, attendees will receive FREE informative materials and resources to take home, including guidelines for choosing the right products, tips for maintenance, and advice on how to listen to your body to avoid injury. Whether you’re new to these practices or looking to refine your skills, this program is a great opportunity to learn in a supportive, inclusive environment. Materials will be distributed to all attendees at the session.
