Name and Gender Change Workshop

NGCW (Name Gender Change Workshop) SLP Logo

Name and Gender Change Workshop provides legal assistance to help transgender, nonbinary, and gender variant clients apply for court-ordered name and gender marker changes and provides them with guidance for updating this information on their state and federal identity documents. Our student volunteers will have the opportunity to learn more about these administrative processes while also developing their skills working with clients.

Supervision: Students will provide legal services through NGCW under the supervision of attorneys from Berkeley Law’s clinical partner, the East Bay Community Law Center (EBCLC).   

Time Commitment: 

  • Three clinics per semester, running 3-4 hours each.
  • Students may anticipate spending approximately 15 hours per semester in the SLP, including 1-2 trainings per semester.
