Course 2: 2022 ACE Renewal Application (Sample Course Shell)
LGBTQ+ youth are considered an at-risk demographic. With increased research on and advocacy for gender and sexual minority persons we have come to a deeper understanding of the unique challenges faced by queer and questioning adolescence. This training will explore a framework for understanding gender and sexuality, discuss identity development, and explore how to support LGBTQ+ youth. These things will be achieved in an educational environment that is safe and stresses progress, not perfection!
After attending training, participants will be able to:
1. Utilize terminology associated with the LGBQT community to build positive relationships with youth who identify as LGBQT+.
2. Re-state at least three (3) laws associated with the legal protection of youth who identify as LGBQT+.
3. Identify strategies that facilitate a considerate, competent, and person-first approach to communication with LGBQT+ youth.
