Special Issue just published In Teachers College Record 124(8): "Supporting Transgender Students and Gender-Expansive Education in Schools" journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

Setting the stage for an amazing school year can be exciting and challenging. It is especially important now for educators and administrators to create safe and affirming environments where LGBTQ+ students can thrive. #RiseUp4LGBTQ+ 🏳️🌈





WE ENVISION A WORLD IN WHICH YOUTH WITH ONE OR MORE LGBTQ+ PARENT ARE CONNECTED TO A BROAD COMMUNITY OR PEERS AND MENTORS, ARE RECOGNIZED AS THE AUTHORITIES OF THEIR SHARED EXPERIENCES, BELONG TO RESPECTED AND VALUED FAMILY STRUCTURES, AND HAVE THE TOOLS TO CREATE A JUST SOCIETY.

No classroom is complete without...LGBTQ+ equality! As you prep to send the fam back to school, DON'T FORGET to take the LGBTQ+ Families and Schools Survey to help us, @GLSEN, and @COLAGENational make future school years affirming for families like yours. buff.ly/3a8mL2X
