Students are identifying within the LGBTQ spectrum more broadly and at a higher rate than ever before. Designed for learners across various levels of knowledge, this training series hopes to answer basic questions, build skills, and engage faculty in discussions around how to make classes more intentionally inclusive for all students.

In addition, we will give an overview of helping students navigate various situations specific to the TGNC community.
