Fordham GSS MSW student Z Paige Lerario, M.D., recently published an article in Scientific American asserting the importance of voice training in improving the quality of life for many transgender people.
“When we do not affirm a transgender person’s identity, we may place that person at greater risk for anxiety, depression and suicide,” Lerario wrote. “It should be no surprise then that one’s voice can have a powerful bearing on quality of life for members of the transgender community.”
