LGBTQ+ TRAINING

Our training program is an important part of realizing our vision of an inclusive, just, and connected world where LGBTQ+ people and communities thrive. 

 

Trainings are conducted by our Education Coordinator, Castro (they/elle) and are available for any type of organization. Generally training sessions run 90 minutes. We are also available for longer, more in-depth sessions. We can provide sessions virtually, in-person, or in hybrid settings.

 

For the most meaningful impact, we encourage ongoing training. This can include recurring training sessions, multiple topics covered in ongoing sessions, different topics targeted for different employee groups, and more. We are happy to discuss how this can best be leveraged in your organization.

TRAINING TOPICS

Our base training, Beyond Binary: LGBTQ+ Core Concepts and Etiquette Essentials, covers the concepts of sex assigned at birth, gender identity and expression, and sexual orientation basics, as well as essential language and pronoun etiquette.

 

This training is designed to establish a common foundation of understanding for participants in order to enable them to contribute to a more inclusive world. We recommend this as a starting point for LGBTQ+ inclusivity education and building a series of sessions from there.
