I am going to be spending next week with family members who are very vocal about their feelings on the transgender community. Where/how can find resources to educate myself? I know the topic will come up and I would like prepare myself somewhat.

So honestly, you won’t convince anyone by arguing with them. In the face of transphobic family, what you’re best doing is simply showing that your support is strong and unflinching.
“I don’t want to argue about this with you. I value trans folk and stand with them. I’m not going to debate their rights with you.”
