This highly interactive and informative cultural competency training supports service providers in deepening their understanding of how to address LGBTQ-specific microaggressions leveled at youth in a school setting. Through self-reflection, group discussion, and video case study, participants will learn to think intersectionally about how to address LGBTQ microaggressions and become familiar with state & federal laws that protect LGBTQ youth in schools. Participants will learn how to intervene when harassing, discriminatory, or simply harmful language is used against LGBTQ students based on individual professional role, and will review four possible responses to microaggressions.
