What does it mean to be intersex? Learn what intersex is, isn't or might be by a local parent of an intersex child.
Sex assignment at birth usually aligns with a child's anatomical sex and genetic traits, but what happens when a child's chromosomal sex is inconsistent with typical characteristics or ambiguous? As a parent of an intersex child, Las Vegas resident Kelli Carlson will share her personal journey of study and research on what it is to be intersex, her experiences taking care of the physical and mental well being of one who is intersex, describe relationship and identity challenges of intersex persons, and provide helpful unbiased information on resources for intersex persons and parents.

Originally opening in 1966 as a three-room library within the Airport Annex building, the Clark County Library moved in 1967 to a storefront. In 1971, the library moved again to its current location using deeded land from the County and with money awarded by the Max C. Fleishman Foundation. The building went on to have two remodels: one completed in 1986, and the second completed in 1994, which resulted in the three-story, 120,000-square-foot building it is today. This redesign notably included a 399-seat theater and an 80-seat black box theater/dance studio. The Library District also added the Best Buy Teen Tech Center, which provides a place for teens to explore and master new technologies and digital skills.
