Advocating for LGBTQ+ Students in Unfriendly Settings
School psychologists often operate in environments with restrictive laws or unsupportive community attitudes toward LGBTQ+ youth. This presentation provides school psychologists with the language and resources to be effective advocates for these students. This webinar examines language around LGBTQ+ identification, offers tips for navigating ethical and legal constraints, provides guidance for talking with others about these issues, and explores a case study addressing a transgender student’s social transition at school. Participants will leave with extensive examples and resources for supporting LGBTQ+ students in their communities.
