Foster Care Training

Examining and dismantling our own implicit gender bias is essential to effectively supporting system involved youth who are queer, trans, and  questioning. In this training, you will learn about microaggressions and how to interrupt bullying and discrimination for LGBTQI+ youth and how to engage in this learning with all system involved youth and families that you support. You will learn mindfulness-based practices to engage LGBTQI+ youth in processing unaccepting attitudes, developing self-awareness, cultivating self-worth and self-love. You will gain tools to deepen your allyship and co-liberatory practices to support system involved youth exploring elements of their gender and sexuality.
