Transgender Women and Girls Should Have the Right to Play

At ReconcilingWorks, we believe transgender women and girls deserve the opportunity to participate in sports with dignity, respect, and belonging.

Being part of a team is about so much more than competition. Sports help young people build confidence, leadership, resilience, friendships, and community. Every child deserves the chance to experience the joy of being welcomed, encouraged, and celebrated for who they are.
 
As people of faith, we believe every person is created in the image of God and is worthy of love, respect, and the opportunity to flourish. We remain committed to the full welcome, inclusion, celebration, and advocacy of LGBTQIA+ people—including transgender women and girls—in every part of our communities.
 
May we continue to build communities where every young person knows they belong, both on the field and beyond.
