He also conducts workshops and trainings for students, businesses, and other organizations. He works with groups of almost all ages, from middle school students to the elderly. Moore conducts these sessions because of his love of teaching, his passion for social justice, and his quest for understanding when it comes to identity studies.
His goals with these workshops are to raise awareness about LGBTQ issues and gender identity. Specifically, Moore gives presentations on identity and diversity in public schools, and provides cultural responsiveness training and workshops meant to increase workplace inclusiveness. He also wants to help schools and businesses increase cultural competency, and he works with staff on how to start productive dialogues about identity and privilege.

He is also a writer and editor. He edited the book titled Trans Bodies, Trans Selves. The book is about the transgender community and is meant as a guide for students, guidance counselors, and professors, much in the vein of the classic book, Our Bodies, Ourselves. It holds a lot of information for those that are transgender such as discussions of legal issues, history, and health and wellness. There are also relationship tips. It is also meant to be a way for transgender people to share information and stories in order to help others. With this book, Scott Loren Moore hopes that transgender people will have a way to share this aspect of their lives with friends and family, and to give them insight into the issues and problems that transgender people face in everyday life.
