Welcome!

The primary objective in any school is to educate the whole child, to help her develop intellectually, socially and emotionally. We want students to learn about different subjects, learn how to get along with and appreciate others, learn how to be good citizens in the world. Meeting these objectives in the contemporary Pre-K-12 setting requires that educators in every role understand the complex and rich Identity Development processes of all children and adolescents.

Few educators receive training in how to engage and address Gender Identity and Sexual Identity in a developmentally appropriate and pedagogically sound manner. From Pre-K to High School, students bring their individual/collective experiences and questions about Gender and Sexuality Diversity to school every day. If you are a teacher or administrator (or parent!), how prepared do you feel to effectively engage in these increasingly commonplace scenarios? more
