Building Safer Spaces for Sexual & Gender Minorities - Part 2

Learning Objectives

Build a plan for how to help your organization be a safer space, including how you will:

  • Learn about sexual and gender minority identities and be more inclusive

  • Become educated regarding queer history, issues, and challenges

  • Share power and privilege to create more equity

  • Solicit feedback from queer communities

Description

Many organizations who are open and supportive of LGBTQIA+ people still unintentionally participate in thoughtless, discriminatory, or even oppressive practices in the day-to-day operation of their work. Making changes to be a more mindful, inclusive, and empowering place to work and seek services will help your organization thrive, build morale, and bolster retention of both clients and staff.
