Why Education, Acceptance, and Love Matter for Kids
A Special Keepers Presentation for Parents and Grandparents
As parents and grandparents, we want nothing more than to see our children thrive in the world. We want to see them make friends, succeed in school, and have a social life. Jeff Bender will provide reflective prompts and insightful questions to encourage parents and grandparents to gain perspective on gender fluidity despite a generational gap with their children and grandchildren.
Jeff Bender has been married to his wife Anna since 2005 and has two children. They reside in Lake Saint Louis, MO. Jeff is the founder of The Lion and The Owl, a company creating a community for LGBTQ youth to feel safe. Too often children and their parents, don’t have access to the safe spaces and community support they need to thrive, which can have devastating consequences for their mental health and overall wellbeing.

Arrangements for Jeff Bender were through the Jewish Book Council that serves to promote the reading, writing, publication, distribution, and public awareness of books that reflect the rich variety of the Jewish experience.
