According to the Children’s Bureau, about “30% of youth in foster care identify as LGBTQ+” and it’s estimated that this percentage is much higher as these numbers are underreported because “youth who come out often risk harassment and abuse”. Parents and guardians who attend this presentation will learn how to create a safe, judgment free, and inclusive environment for their LGBTQ+ youth. We will go over common misconceptions, the differences between sexuality and gender, age appropriate LGBTQ+ conversations, and different resources available to guardians.

Registration will close on Tuesday, December 20, 2022, at 7am
