The rates of bullying, truancy due to lack of safety in schools, and subsequent suicidality for LGBT+ youth are exponentially higher than for non-LGBT+ youth. As a result, many American K-12 students are suffering needlessly and many school leaders are unsure of what to do. This book solves that problem. Setting out best practices and professional guidance for creating LGBT+ inclusive learning in schools, this approachable and easy-to-follow book guides teachers, educators, administrators, and school staff toward appropriate and proven ways to create safer learning environments, update school policies, enhance curricula, and better support LGBT+ youth as they learn.

Featuring real-life situations and scenarios, a glossary, and further resources, this book enables professionals in a variety of school roles to integrate foundational concepts into their everyday interactions with students, families, and staff to create an overall school culture that nurtures a welcoming, inclusive, and affirming environment for all. This book can be utilized by independent readers, department teams, and entire school district reading experiences.

This book also includes brand new, never before seen postcards from PostSecret as its foreword and its afterword is written by James Lecesne, co-founder of The Trevor Project. Also inside is the very first (and likely only ever) interview by the leaders of "Parents of Transgender Children," the world's largest support group of its kind.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Very informative. This book provided me with insight into not just concerns for LGBTQ students in schools, but ideas on how to be more inclusive and give these kids, not just a safe school environment, but an environment that fosters unity, growth, and a positive educational experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST READ for anyone who works with kids, has kids, or has a child in their family
Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2020
Great book, easy to read, and very helpful in understanding topics that often seem too complicated, yet I don't feel like the author dumbed it down. Thinking of giving it as a gift to my child's teachers as end of the year gifts instead of another stupid apple scented candle.
